hello, i have found that slicks work in a narrower band of conditions, the temperature is the first and they do take an extera lap compared to treaded tyres to warm up. also as they have more outright grip and no tread they move around less and feel more surefooted when your near the limit, but then there is less warning that you are near the limit. I think you need to be a very good rider to really benfit from using them the new supercorsa pro and dunlops are so good now that at thruxton the british supersport 600s are lapping as quick as the suprbikes did in 97 or 98.
