So I've got a CBR250 that I use to get into the city for work that needs new tyres. Anyone used the pilot streets?

They would be replacing some (great) sport daemons. They are quite a lot more expensive and didn't last as long as I was expecting.

Don't do it they are terrible. Carcass too stiff bloody deadly in the wet.

Depends on what your commute is. NSL and twisties? Avoid. filtering through gridlocked traffic? Yeah, no issues.

Looked at tyre leader and they are offering a discount on Daemons at the moment, around £10 more for the pair compared to the streets.

Cold and wet performance on the sport daemons was the place where they weren't as good as say the pilot roads, but on dry roads, faultless. Not terrible millage out of them, but they are only on a teeny 250, so was expecting around 10k.

Had them on my CBR300 before it died, they were fine for the small amount of time I had on them, better than the IRC crap.
