I went through a set last season on my 900 and (trying to be completely objective) they only let go unpredictably once (club corner - silverstone - damp). At TA3 (rocky) they behaved very reasonably on a nightmare track, and I was able to lay down full power on about 50% of the corners, the only exceptions being the two corners everyone came off of. In the dry they've been exceptional, probably more in terms of profile and stability rather than outright grip. The only time they've broken away was on a baking hot day Snetterton under heavy rear braking on the last lap of a hot session. I've watched plenty of folk bail on the first lap of TDs last year on a variety of tyres, but never felt like the next would be me! I've never tried any bridgestones, but I have had Dunlops 207s and they didn't agree with me at all. I'll be up at Cadwell this weekend on new diablos as well so you should get plenty of feedback next week... Cheers, Ali |
