    Those might be the road attacks, my friend has those and they do look really funky.

    Mine have a much different tread than that.

    Pilot Powers?

    Thanks for all the help guys. I know PPs arent the only ones out there, but everyone seems to have them, or the Sports or whatever. I think I will look into pricing of the others that people suggested, because (like Oreo said) I am planning on doing a couple trackdays, but I do a LOT ofcommuting and don't ride that hard.

    A little background, I got 12K out of my stock tires, and the front is pretty much dead. The back I can probably eke another 1-2K out of, but if I go on any spirited rides, they wouldn't treat me well. I'm looking to purchase by July.

    Thanks again

    That is a Conti Force. A good tire, it is also a dual compound tire. Force is the street tire, and Force Max is the track day version.

    Not hard to kick ass in F1 when its a spec tires series. Kinda like Pirelli bragging about WSB Championships....

    Kiera, just buy the powers. You will certainly like them and they aren't that much more expensive than what's out there. It can't hurt to have a little more tire than you need. It will just give you a little more "Oh Shit!" room to play with.

    P.S. How did you wear out the front tire before your rear? On all my bikes regardless of their respective power, my ratio is for the most part 2 fronts to 1 rear.
