Besides all the fun, our track day two weeks ago left me quite disappointed with my PP 2ct's on a hot track at 95%. Although I take some responsibility for too much throttle exiting apexes, the PP's got quite greasy and stepped out on me at least a couple of times. Don't get me wrong, they are fine street tires BUT, yesterday I went off the deep end and installed Michelin Pilot Race, medium compound tires on my Busa!
No need for the low mileage warnings, I realize that, I just feel the need to have eliminated ALL excuses for less than optimal handling.
Tomorrow, I'll take the bike into the Sierra twisties, rub em in, then see what they feel like! Got a track day coming up so I figure a couple "sport rides" in the mountains then Reno Fernley here I come.
