wow your tires lasted 4 years mine(pilot powers) don't last 3500 miles
no the pilots didnt last four years, the bike only had 2500 miles on it when i bought it and still had the stock tires from 04. ( i bought it about a month ago) and i switched fromt stock tires to the powers....and its a hell of a difference
you'll love 'em. I'm on my 3rd set of the 2ct's. No problems...but I think i'll probably try the diablo corsa III's next..just to see what they're like. have fun with 'em...
my tires don't even last me a year :nono...
Yeah I did the samething after I put my 2CT's on my bike a week ago.

Funny. I have the DCIII now, and was thinking of switching to the Michelin. Not too sure though. I might be a cheap ass this time and only re-new my rear for now. I have always replaced in sets, but now I am starting to think maybe it is just a waste. I rarely do a track-day so its mostly local skootin' around and twisties. After doing track-days, I have realized that on the street, you are barley using the tire anyway.

:stupic Mine dont either, i always go through at least 2 sets a summer... I dont know how you guys get them to last so long...
4 months for my last set i went with the diablo stradas this time because their a slightly harder compound
My diablo corsa 3's lasted me about 8k miles. hurray for dual compound.
i do a bit of commuting and town riding on the bike, not just twisties so im hoping that the dual compound tires will last a bit longer than if i just got the reg pilot powers
