    anybody try Michelin Pilot Road 2CT yet?

    this site has hella deals on front/rear sets and free shipping. they're in Michigan. I ordered a jacket from them last fall and got it the next day.

    watch some of the videos. the owner, Brian Van is an amateur racer and a real character, too.

    I had the pilot power 2CT's on both my R1 and the TL1000R.... ididnt like them... i felt that they were squirmy in turns and that the front tire seemed to wear to the edge of the tire too quickly in comparison to others.... On the R1, even with the rear wore to the very edge, the front tire always has 1/2" to 1" left... you just don't get anywhere near the edge of the front, even when the rear is wore the entire way.... with the 2CT's that wasnt' the case.... so, i never was impressed....

    Haven't gotten to push them yet, but the Diablo Rosso's are pretty nice so far!

    well, if they're good enough for Scott5, they're good enough for me.
    I only got 1,100 miles on this Diablo and it's getting close to the wear marks in the middle. I only got 34psi in it and NO, I don't just burn down the highway at 110mph all day. I don't ride on any 4-lane roads at all. All back roads and twisties. I ordered a rear Road 2CT earlier today, so it will be here when I'm ready.

    Danny, you still puting them on at your shop? Spin balance, too?

    got that tire today. Ordered Monday at 1pm and it was delivered today at 3:30. I know they're only in MI, but that's still nuts. free shipping on tires and the lowest price you can find on the internet for Michelins.

    OK, my gaydar goes off every time the topic comes up, but she won't let it go. Wifey apparently wants a SCOOTER. She knows she can't keep up with me on the highway or the twisties, but she wants something to go to the grocery store and "scoot" around town a little bit. I think it's hilarious. She's going to kill herself. She wrecks stuff with 4 wheels a few times a year. Maybe, I should just let her go and hope for the best?

    Does anybody have any experience with them? I was researching and the Yamaha Zuma 125 looks like a pretty cool ride and decent power (55-60mph top speed).
