  3. It's 2008. Not sure if that's new or not
    Its red, shiny and noisy which is the main thing

  7. Good for you!
    Seriously though, there are not many ‘bad’ tyres out there these days. Do you ride hard or do you want a long life from your hoops?

  8. Michelin power RS, dual compound, heat up real quick and stick to the road like shit to a blanket....

  9. Pirelli Supercorsa SC1/2 Or Metzeler Racetec K1/2 front/rear do me. Usually taken off my trackbike after a couple of trackdays and fitted to the road bike.

  10. Power RS I keep tearing, even on the road.

    Rosso 3 I rate for road.

  11. I'm steady enough, don't rip it up, and would prefer long lasting ones really. The wing mirrors aren't great for squad car spotting so high speeds are out.and I don't do track days, well I never have yet

  12. I wouldn't dare ride my noisy red thing without a clear head.
    A toy it isn't

  14. Pirelli Diabolo Corsa, Metzler M7RR etc will suit. Grippy enough and last well.

  15. I had some Pirelli Rosso Corsa 2 on my 1198....dual front compound and triple rear for great mileage and grip. Anything other than Pirelli is just wrong on a Duke! (unless it's a track bike ;))
