thing is andy as my mate said to me, do i really need the 2ct on the road and imho i dont! I find the pilot powers give me the same confidence as the 014 but they last longer.

The thing with me is that i always want the best hence i wanted the 2ct's!  :D

 Just put 2ct's on mine, gone through 2 BT014's rear and 1 pair of Diablo Corsa? The thing about putting a new set of tyres on is that you have got used to the shitty squared of profile of the old ones, so any make of new ones would feel good. Even the shite Dunlop's would feel good for a few hundred mile? Needless to say the Pilot's feel fantastic for now but I need to scrub them in first. Should know better tomorrow after a trip to Hartside Cafe  :D
My other bike is another Suzuki ?

try the bridgestone 002 st
fookin brill  :D . stick like shìt to a blanket and had em scrubbed in after 60 miles ready for a day at the nurgburgring. no strips left on these babies >:D
they wont last as long as pilot power etc but they make up for it in the grip alone  :D
fallen ones aren,t forgotten
