Default Re: Tyres - "Pilot Road 4" or new "Road 5"?

I've slid the back with my PR4s a few times now.. even in the dry. But I think that's me being a bit heavy footed. They don't feel as amazing as I was expecting. I had some sporty Maxxis things on there before that were terrible in the wet or cold. Difficult to compare the PR4s to them though as where I avoided the wet and cold with the Maxxis' fitted, I tend to use the bike more than I used to in a mixture of conditions with the PR4s on, so maybe that's a sign that they are better / I have more confidence in them.


I have had one very wet ride out with the PR4s fitted and they handled the wet roads ok, but it was a fairly warm day. Maybe temperature affects them (or tyres in general) more than wet roads do?
