street tires

I've enjoyed the 2ct's for 5 sets now.  The only thing I've noticed is they don't give any warning when they are going to let go.  (That was in the middle of August and very hot) I've been told the 208 give a little more warning.  I'm giving them a try.  I'll be able to give a better idea after the 23rd.

The 208 or 209or GPAs, give a big warning.  It seems that let go and slide for 6-8 inches without much warning and regrip in a instant.  That "is" the warning.  I feel all the dunlops do this

Gangplank told me Jason Pridmore uses them on his bike at his trackdays and moto-school.

"WOW!! Now that's a low price!"

I love that commercial!

Internet scares me.   I have purchased a 4 tires from them in the past.
The tires were a couple years old and one had a major blemish.
Just check them carefully as they have a 'no questions asked' refund policy which may come in handy.
I like to buy my tires locally so when one delam's I can complain to a real person and have them fight for me to get a new set from the distributor.

yea i agree i would LOVE to get them local if someone was able to get close to the price. not expecting the same but sadly i can barely afford those at the online price.

Just remember, install costs more if you don't buy your tires from the place that they are getting mounted. Every shop does that, so just be aware, might not be as good a deal as you think once you have them installed.

my buddy actually has a tire stand and that no mar bar so we can do it no problems. hes also got a wheel balancer.

If it's a defective tire, you have no recourse. It has happened twice, which is why I only buy locally on stuff that can be defective

Eddie loves the Q2's on his 1000.  He uses it for his pratice tire.

I thought the Q2's were on his Kawi 6

190 a set is cheap.

Real cheap.

Tires are everything on a bike everything...

No skimping.
