This thread has come in as quite a good read as I'm currently deciding what tyres to upgrade to from the Dealer Supplied BT20's on my 06 Z750.

I take it it's up to individual choice?.

The pilot road is the equivelant tire to the BT20..... I was thinking about it this morning and I would really like to try the BT02's.... they are supposedly the equivelant of the pilot powers....

Im sure I will get used to the new shape of this tire...... Its just that the fact that it tips in quicker feels unusual right now.... If I can get to the stage where I am more comfortable with it I will probably enjoy it more...

mate the pilot powers are awesome!

ive only used mine on the road for about 200k's and did a track day with them and whoa! i have them front and rear and they work awesome (i dont have to use anywhere near the effort u are describing) bike seems razor sharp and the grip is sooo damn good!

so just a note to anyone considering powers .. DOOO IT! haha
