Love 'em! By Phenix_Rider riding a Ninja 650R		January 5, 2009
Pros:	Great Grip!
Cons:	Slightly lacking in feedback compared to Bridgestones.
Great tires. Weekend rides in varying conditions are no problem (hot to wet/cold). Only managed to slip them on wet intersection paint. Took them to the track, and they worked great (started cold and misty in the morning and cleared up). Came up to temp just perfect for my pace. About 3,000 miles on them now, and expecting another 2,000+. Great in the corners, with smooth linear turn in. I'd like a little more feedback from the front, but love these tires.

High Performance Street Tire by Anonymous riding a BMW R1100S		December 31, 2008
If they want a high performance street tire, and track days in beginner/intermediate class. NE roads which are pretty abrasive.
