What's your next set of tires ??
Seeing, I am going through this decision to run a plug or get a new tire. I'm curious what people would buy for a new set of tires. Would you replace with the same tire or choose something different ?
I have the corsa 3's which I am happy with on warm days, but chilly day's and rainy days I find myself sliding a bit which happens ,but I would like it to happen less.
So, what would your next set of tires be and why ?

I reckon I'll get Pilot Powers, there's probably plenty of tires around that are just as good but I've had a few good runs with them.

I just switched to Pilot Powers two weeks ago. I loved them on my DR-Z400SM and so far they're just as great on the Hyper.

Does anyone know how many miles you could expect out of a set of pilot powers on the hypermotard? I know this can be different for each rider but a general idea with mostly road duty or all road. I am trying to get an average of regular powers (not 2ct) vs pilot road 2s. Any help will be appreciated.

I get about 2 rears for every 1 front. So, my next rear will be another Corsa III and then I plan to switch back to Bridgestones.
I have my heart set on a pair of 003s ... love the chewing gum.

I got about 2700 (3000 would have been possible) on my rear PP 2CT and will do two rears to a front. I am going to try the new Dunlop Sportmax next time out, just to be different.
Out!
