New tyres for my ZX14?

[BarBender]

Most of the brands mentioned are good.
Re the tyre wear/grip - My experience has been that the right suspension settings for my weight and type of riding were my first port of call.

Unit/DMNTD are 14 owners and rate the original Powers. They got 12,000ks. In fact most of the Busa owners I know also rate them.

depends on your riding style

the pilotroad2 is an eccelent allrounder

m3's are aimed at a more performance oriented usage, but they last well.

they would be my choice

I really like the Storm's as well, but my next tyre will probably be the PR2. Not that I don't believe Hitcher, but it's something I need to check out for myself. Pilot Powers are great, but I only managed 4500km out of the two I've had!

7000k on OEM BT14's, 12000km Conti Road Attacks on my ZX14.
Just put another set on- great tyre.

Thanks for the input team. After much constipation...opps...you know what I mean, I opted to try out a pair of Pilot Road 2's. Haven't had a chance to get out on them yet but will keep you posted on how they perform and hold up to the abuse. Thanks again....Scooter

Gidday Scooter,
Stick with the Z6's - have run them religiously on my 12 & will be hard pressed to change, they just "work" on big bikes ...

Cheers

so true , and keep the pressure up to 39 psi or 40 psi
have done about 6500 km on my rear now and it should go another 3 or 4 k yet

so Scooter, what did you go for in the end - and what's the verdict?

[ritchtheitch]

whoops, sorry musta been on page one..

Wadda ya think?
Just bought a 14 myself and would be keen to hear what you think of the PR 2's so far.

I've got Pilot Road 2's on the R1 (not that it's a brilliant comparison to the 14 but I'm still having my say!). They're a really good road tyre is all I can say. I've never run out of grip on them and they warm up real fast.
