I gotta get a new front too.. Pilot Power would be my choice again.. I think they're about $195 or so... been a while since I've had to get one, I was making do with Pilot Race's and put my old Diablo back on but the sides are shagged so I'm trying to hold out till warmer weather before buying a new one.

could take you up on that one Marty, I still haev the rear pilot race, haven't used it yet.

That brigey is still going, not that it gets much use, certainly slips around abit though, esp when cold and you gas it.
