Face it bro you bought the bike to rip on.

If you wanted miles per gallon or tire life you would have bought a Honda Civic.

Get the stickiest tire which is the Q2 and have fun, I had a long and very Fing good explanation of how I have tried the Battle Axe, PP's and the Q2s and like the Q2 better and now that they have fixed the tire wear issue it's the best but the token expired!!!!:banghead:


Hands down Q2 you won't be sorry and guess what If your are grab a set of PP's next and compare! Your going to run through them anyway it's a BUSA! They eat tires for breakfast along with everything else on the road! :rulez: it's the King that's what they do it the rest and crap out the crunchy bits!
 
But these are apples to oranges comparison. The Q2s are the best street racing tire you can get, period. I don't believe that the 2CT's are designed for that and not marketed for that. People may like their 2ct but they don't compare to the Q2s. Just tires for different rides. I WOULD compare the 2ct to the Dunlop Roadsmart or Roadsmart 2. That would be a correct comparison. Good Luck!

$800 a day (I'd need two days) and air fair! I'll be happy to come straighten your big A$$ out!

Sounds expensive but in reality it's only 25% of one day in intensive care!

First thing I'd do is get you off those PP's! I've picked up a train load of crashed bikes on PP's.

The reason you can drag your brake lever is because you are going so slow. Try doing that at triple digits and see how far you slide on your arse through the bushes? :thumbsup:
 
Team Gixxer will split the cost... We want the old guy to come show us some new tricks down at barber this fall...


P.S. Tuf I'll help you push Keith's waded up Gixxer into the truck...

I'm only about 60 miles from Seattle. If you get up this way PLEASE look me up.

The new track in Shelton "The Ridge" is a beauty. When complete with hotel, restaurant and complete facilities it's no doubt going to be the best track in the northwest, possibly on the west coast. I have two days scheduled there next week. Thursday with SullivanRaceSchool.com and Friday with 2-fast.org then races over the weekend. Great place to enjoy two wheel fun!

Is your son in the military up here or just living in Seattle?

After June, STT does not go back to Barber until September - which I will be at - but I'm gonna have to do something in between. There is a Road Atlanta date in July
 
Michelins are no doubt a popular tire. But since I can buy Dunlops that are equal or better, at about 20-30% less a set, I know a good deal when I see it.
