As for tyres I would rather pay £30 to £40 more to buy tyres of my choice than have cheaper Bridgestones, I trust my life with Pirellis and I don't with Bridgestones.
Secondly my other bikes are on Pirellis so I have a feel for them, and may well race my R6 or 916 in other races at the same meetings and do not want to be riding on different makes, hopefully this may also apply to others later in the season as one or two others may want to enter there bigger Dukes in the SoT so I feel we should all be able to ride on tyres we are happy with.
Thirdly some of the 600s will also be peoples road bikes so again they may prefer their own tyre preference.
