Tire recommendations
I need a new back tire and will probably order one tonight seeing as i don't want to be without a bike for long. I have michelin powers on currently and the front is holding up great but the back has become odd shaped. I want something not as soft as the ones i have on there but i don't want something to hard as to where it has no grip. Any suggestions and where to order them? Thanks.
Also what oil should i run during colder temps? I will be riding this thing for as long as i can stand the cold.

I haven't had much luck w/ pilots on the rear either....I think dunlop has a dual compund that is supposed to last a little longer. As far as oil I run the same all year round, but then it only gets down to around 40 out here....just make sure ya let it warm up real good when it's chilli and let that oil get to flowin before ya take off...

i have always ran qualifiers, but I recently tried a pilot power after talking to some guys on here. some like and some dislike. i personally like it but have only put on about 1,000 miles so far. my dunlops were good but they dont grip like this pilot in the turns. As far as longevity, rolling burnouts and long wheelies f my centers up fast no matter what I use.

Im telling you guys get the bridgestone bt021's. The rear is a dual compound, harder in the center for wear and softer on the sides for grip. The front is the same compound as the sides of the rear. I LOVE them. I will get another set as soon as these are toast!!!!!! The front is actually wearing out alot faster than the rear!!! Try em, you wont be disappointed!!!!!

Wish you would have posted the name sooner. My friend was telling me about them but didn't know the name. I ordered the M3 so i hope Wes and the reviews prove to be true. I want to try the bridgestone so maybe next time if my bike lasts that long. Wonder how much they cost.
