Got them on my CBR, but £250!!!!!! Just got a new rear for £107 for a 180 section. That was a loose wheel though. I think it adds about £7 for a ride in ride out.

I didn't! Got two punctures in it which meant it could not be fixed at about 1,000 miles.

Best tyre i have ever used! done 2 trackdays on them so far and think i might get another out of them. done about 2000 DRY miles, including a few fast(ish) laps of the Isle Of Man


I think i will be ready for a change as soon as summer starts, I paid £200 fitted to the bike at bike Tyres Leeds. Too far for you to travel, but thats wot you get from living down south

Got a set of Pilot Powers fitted to the Ducati today for 295 euros? Can't believe I got caught in a minor downpour on my way home with my new set just fitted. But first impressions are extremely positive.

The bike is so planted that try as I might,due to new rubber and rain...I just got faster and faster and leant further and further as I rode home.Incredible. The bike just wants to flop in to those bends for you! Really shows me how hard I was having to work on my cornering with the Pilot Sports that I replaced with these.

Roll on hot weather and dry tarmac that is all I can say.Get them is my suggestion!
