Thats nice but where did that information come from? As I would disagree with the mileage.

I posted that in the Independent tests thread.

It originally came from the Michelin site hence Pilot Road 2's being top in everything.

I intend to do a write up about the Pilot Road 2's next week, after this weekends ride.

Yes, I ride a pointy, but it's the same tyre.

I opted for the Dunlop 207's for my curvey sv...and they are the bee's knees, superb for grip and perfect for cornering...they gave me mucho of added confidence.
