contemplating between those or the Pilot Road 2's next.
My brother has, he liked him a lot and said they lasted awhile. He basically commuted to work, but wanted something to play on the gap when he had his Katana. He liked them fairly well, said they lasted pretty good and had decent grip.

I was recommended the Storms when I was looking for a similar tire.

I am a big michellin guy. I used a set of 2cts on my track bike and shredded em, I figud theyre better for the street and went back to the powers for track duty, need the sides to last a little longer

I got 3 sets of PP's for track duty and a set of pilot roads for the priller which will throw on before I leave for the rally. I still have that rear that I put on last year, lotof tread but it did flatten out some.


Plus I figure I need to get you bastids up here for tommypalooza this summer. Derf has been here before so make him drive

I have the stock D220's on my 2nd gen SV. They're an "ok" tire and I honestly don't find them as bad as everyone says they are. That being said, however, my next tires will be Pilot Roads - I want something better than "ok"
