Morning Org.

As my experience with tyres is limited I thought I'd ask you lovely and not so lovely people your opinions.

It's time to replace the PR4's that were on my GSXR1000 when I bought it.
I have almost - hence looking for replacements - killed the PR4's which were barely used when I got the bike end of Oct. So 5 months - 4500 miles.
I used to get around 6000 from a PR4 on the SV.

As summer is looming, should I be looking for something a little more fun, however this will probably wear out far too quickly?
Or stick to what I know, and put the same tyres back on.
Or as i'm always skint something cheaper?

I did like the Pirelli Diablo Strada, Gary suggested for the SV last time.
Shame I never got to wear them out, they are still in my garage.
But I'm unsure how they would handle double the ponies.

Thoughts please.
