I like Pilot Powers for the front and Pilot Roads on the rear... but I'm not really good enough for it to make a difference.

Re: need input on good stunt tires

I ran Pirelli Diablo on my F2 and they were great. Even in the pouring rain I could clutch up & not spin.
I have Michelin Pilot Powers on my R1 and there good too. I havent rode my R1 in the rain though.

Go to HAI and check out the Michilin Pilot Road review. Its suposed to be the longest lasting tire, with no breakin time & quick warm up. I'm switching my rear to that when my pilot powers goes bald.

Re: need input on good stunt tires

Don't those old 900's have a 17" front or something odd like that.. I like race tires. They hook up like nothing else and when you get them leaned over the contact patch is huge for doing o's. So much confidence on them.

Those tires grip very well but they wear way too fast. I ran them before and wore them down way too quick. They are more of a track tire. The regular Pirelli Diablo's last alot longer.

Yeah, they have a 16" front rim so it kinda limits what you can buy for a matching set. I went with the m3 because all the other great tires wouldn't fit my bike, havn't had any problems with it. Someone mentioned a shinko, i ran the Stealth (i think) 003 verison on the rear, that bitch lasted forever and would hook up like nothing else. Even when i thought the thing was gone it took forever to burn off.

If i were you id spend the money and swap out forks with a 929 or something so you can run a regular tire and not have such a hassle. Hit up a salvage yard or something or ebay and save yourself some trouble.
