Pilot Road 2's are a great tyre. The Road 3 is out now, i'd be giving them a go.
I am currently running these on my ST1300. Done about 3000km so far and very happy with the handling in wet and dry. They also have a nice profile which feels really good when cornering. Previous to this the only tyres I rated on the ST were bridgestones.
BIKE magazine comment, "Damned good in the wet and very good for high mileage. Not recommended for tracks."
Those are the only tires I use on my Yamaha Fjr and my friend rides what you do and I turned him on to these now he won't use anything else either.
That's what I thought, but when I counted the bikes in the pic......bloody Harley! She was probably conserving gas unless it couldn't make it back out!?
Fifteen bikes? For some reason Jude didn't make it to the group photo. Probably trying to get the burglar alarm on the Harley turned off.
Hey mate, I did a bit of research on fairings for my zxr and found that it was half the price to get fairings brand new off ebay.au.com than anything in NZ. As for fairingsolutions i did look at them and while i thought they seemed legit (if a bit expensive?!) i havn't actually tried them. Good luck and let me know how it goes because im still thinking on getting some Cheers Matt p.s. the ebay ones i found were already painted unlike the ones i could find in new zealand (saves u even more money)
Yeah you gotta watch that V-max!
I'd be keen to see if they're legit as well
Thanks KoroJ for your thoughts, Was a great day and the weather played its part.
Good on ya for popping up KoroJ.

Pfft, ATGATT is better than coming off at 50 and shredding everything... I feel sorry for those scooterers, most of them just don't know any better...
Having just found riding i can totally relate to your blog, the wind, the lights, the cars: EVERYTHING. The sense of accomplishment when you get home, YOUR ALIVE. And no that feeling beams through me constantly. Driving is no more a boring mundane everyday sit on your cage thing. Riding is your life, in your hands getting from A to B and back to A. WOOOO i hear ya chef, I hear ya
