Initial impression after 60 miles or so: very impressed, the front now feels like it has a steering damper on, lays into the corners nicely, no twitching, seem to warm up quick. I'll report more when I give em a good spanking. :-D

60 miles? You ain't even wore the new off of 'em yet. I really like the Pilots, but would be interested if there was a better alternative.

I really like the Pilots. Saw an ad this month in Sportrider for $209 per set, and around here the dealers will generally match the ads.

I found the Pilots slippery, got cold fast and made me less confident. For my style of aggressive riding they did not work.

I love my Pirelli Corsas and Corsa III, they only last about 3k miles but they sure stick and make the bike handle way much better. I am installing a set of Dunlop GP front and 208 ZR rear for the next track school.
