SO I am debating.
Last year I ran Pilot Powers the whole season.
Never had any real issues and I KNOW I can't outride them.
But the mental thing kept coming up.
I am coming into this turn really hot...will the tires hold...
My only crash this past year was the result of 2 mistakes on my part and it was more of a bad arm position than anything. But I second guess myself A LOT on this. The back end stepped out...was it because of my mistake or did the tire lose traction?
SO I find myself shopping for tires for this year.
I already have a set of 2CTs brand new and ready to go.
But I can't help but wonder if it's gong to be enough...or would new Pilot Powers be plenty...or should I step up one more to Pilot Race?
I love the Michelin profile the most of any tire I have used (DC3s, Powers, Qualies) on the street so other brands aren't really a consideration unless the profile is the same as the Michelins.
Bike is a 2000 GSXR750 and I ride a mid-fast B group pace.
Should I go stickier to ease my over-active self survival instinct or are Powers or 2CTs going to be plenty?
Thanks for any advice.
