avon roadriders are good, youll never outperform them on the street and they last a million years. you hear me!? a MILLION YEARS!

in all seriousness though just dont get pilot powers, and if you do dont get dual tread compound. theyll seperate tread from cord, and send a twenty pound sheet of rubber through your bike at the speed of pain. plus theyre racist.

That's a false statement.

I'm on my 6th set of 2ct's and never had a problem. If you have proof, post it. And I'm not just talking about a picture of a front tire from the recalls made in France. I'm also not just talking about you "hearing" this has happened or knowing someone that has claimed it happened to them. Has this happened to you personally? Have you witnessed this FIRSTHAND?

I know atleast a hundred people that use this tire on the street and/or at trackdays exclusively and have never had a problem.

Yeah man I think it's just my dumb fkn luck...The bad thing is I like the tire. Don't ask me how the hell I had em come apart, I don't do anything stupid on the bike no burnouts or none of that??? The tech that does the work on it has been equally baffled....

The PP's (and other tires, too) will seperate like crazy if they're on backwards or unbalanced.

I've had several sets for over 40,000 miles, street and trackdays, No problems. I also do my own mounting and balancing.
