Tyres?

[Sidewinder]

what rubber do you guys use and or like?

[Wingnut]

Dont know what that Prillei band is - never heard of them. But I use Pirelli for what its worth

[Kiwi Graham]

Always had a soft spot for Michelin, I can 'feel' when their at the edge of adhesion and for some reason am still loyal to the brand even now that I have to buy them for normal price!!

See my sig.....and I LOVE em! If your keen to try some at a fraction of the cost brand new, I sell them after each race day....maximum use is 6 races plus practices so heaps of life left in them still...PM me if interested.

Continental mate, and if you want direct track side help with bike set up from me at Moto-Dynamix, ( FOC) you will want to be using Conti also

My favourite tyres have always bee pirelli diablos - but with a different bike now, I'm running Pilot Road 2's - they appear to stick equally as good - so far :woohoo:

[Hitcher]

I run tyres built by a manufacturer that's on the "list" -- Avon.

I also suggest that the thread starter read the sides of tyres and note the spellings of Pirelli, Michelin, and Metzeler.

[Taz]

There's no option for Pirelli?

Keep you mind out of the gutter please.

[Hitcher]

If you can make 365 condoms out of a used tyre, then it's probably a Goodyear.

ahhh....see we're talking about dry track tires.....not wet dirt track tires:woohoo:

[DEATH_INC.]

I've always liked Dunlops in the past, but I tried the new (ish) diablo supercorsa's and was well impressed by them, both on the track and the road. Yet to try the Dunny m-techs, but at the price of them.....

Dunlops are the tyre on the moment...so if you after advice on best tyres...thats it!!

If you just being a nosey twit...then your poll makes sense...people often use tyres that are the best deal or because of habit.

[Robert Taylor]

Keep an eye on Continentals, these tyres are getting better and better. And when you buy their race tyres they are fresh from production.

[driftn]

I seem to remember that you started a thread just like this one not all that long ago ya twit.

[driftn]

oh for the record i use Pirelli.

[cowpoos]

which is something that is very very important.

[Sketchy_Racer]

Conti all the way. I love em. Great feed back which is super important and great off track support which is also important! With Shaun and Mishy who are usually at most meetings and are both clued up about them you will find what you need to know with ease!

Do contis do a slick?? I wonder if they would be similar to dunlops cause you run similar pressures.... The main reason i like Dunlops is the profile of there front tyre and they dont deteriorate like some other brands

Dunlop N-Tecs are clearly the tyre that has set the line in the sand but there is a new Continental slick that is very very good. Speak to Mishy, he knows more about tyres than anyone.

Im riding on P but just got a new set and the rear is 1 1/2 years old and front just over a year which doesnt impress me much.
Might be change time.
