Road Attacks are great. Stick like glue in the corners and long wearing. Getting ready to put my 4th set on my lightning. Best prices are www.ridedirect.com with free shipping on a set. Just bought a set for $216 delivered.

Yep!! Pirelli Diablo Rosso's like posted above are the shi'at. They stick to the road like stink on poo, white on rice, dollar bills to a sweaty stripper. I can only verify the first two examples in a public chat room though.

I bought the road attacks last year and LOVE them. Only have ~1500 miles on them, so can't comment on tire life. They seem to work well even on wet roads.

Road Attacks stick like white on rice!! Mine squared off around 4500 miles, and are now wore out at 5000.

I have used Sport Attacks and Road Attacks. Both are great Tires. The Sport only lasted me 2600 miles and the Road 7000 miles. I would buy the Road again for Street use.
