OK here's the deal. I bought an insurance writeoff curvy that I'm converting to a trackday bike. Hagon shock, KTech fork springs and heavier oil, race plastics but otherwise essentially stock. I'm a former racer, not too bad in my day but an old fart now. The bike will be used 2-3 times a year and I don't have or want tyre warmers. I'll run in intermediates, maybe fast on a good day

What tyres would people recommend?

I need track spec but road legal, that can be warmed up in 1-2 laps of track so I don't need warmers, and which aren't a disaster area in cooler or damp conditions. Bit of a tall order perhaps but I'd like to hear your views and personal experiences.

Thanks!
