Tyres, Tyres, Tyres!!!

Which to choose!!!???? Its hell of a choice.
I know there has been a lot of talk on the subject. But there have not been many mileage figures posted. Mileage is important, but so is grip? What should I go for? The oem's have been quite good varying from 2,500 - 3,000 miles. Done 10,500 now.
What about track days? Which tyres should ya go for there?! There's lots of different opinions about the diffent makes but has anyone tried a variety of tyres.
I scratch quite often doing the fairing on the right hand side complete with exhaust, but I also do quite a bit of mileage 2 up.
I'm not totally against the idea of two sets of wheels!!!!
Thanks in advance for any comments.

Scratching, I would personally recommend Dunlop 207 sportsmax

Have got 2500 miles from them, just starting to flat off, probably last another 1000

OEM's are pants, IMHO!!!!

Stay Safe

I am running a set of 207s because Michelin Pilot Sports were on back order and I could not wait any longer. The 207s are good; better than the Bridgestones, but nowhere near the Pilots for grip or wear. Can't wait for the 207s to wear out so I can go back to the Pilots.

There is a reason why the Pilots are hard to find. Once you run them, you are hooked.
