    Pirelli Sport Demons are the duck nuts i have used BT45s and the Demons are better, and great in the rain

    BT45s are still a really good tyre tho, i just like my Demons

    The rd's are ginger nuts [no offense]
    Hmm I don't think I have evr owned a tyre that performs as poorly as a skunko. The worst I have had are IRC RX01 and they are poos but they last quite a while on the front. I liek sport demons on little bikes or pilot spoty michellins

    They cant make you run a bikes tyre brand that it came out with or that would mean some bikes would be given the chop simply because the original tyre isnt avaliable and cant see them enforcing stinko slippery tyres for racing.Think they are more interested in rider safety.Get some gpra10 tyres which also have 18inch rear if required.Alot of vfr400s run them and they have very good grip without wearing fast on lighter bikes.
    You could run a whole series and some track days on one set on a 250 easy.
