backing it in on the track is tough on tires… i love having all sorts of balled up rubber on my tires and then parking next to sportbikes with my street-tard.

I had Metzler M3’s on my triumph. They were nice, I wouldn’t compare them to my Pilot Powers, but they were good tires. Nothing beats a Shinko though… ahaha Willy Have you tried to Power ONE??? I need feedback. I no longer have tire shots. I could go in the garage now, but I won’t. It’s so snowy there. My bike is in between two Ducs:(
