Just got a set. SEEM stickier around the edges. Anyone used these who have used regular pilot powers before? How do they compare? | ||

they are pretty darn close, even if the ride is somewhat brisk only when you really push it do you notice any difference... the pilots had a tenancy to get a little pastey, the 2ct no such issue. And the 2 ct survived a track day and looks like they are good for another. Unlike the regular pilot powers they do not last, they will poop out probably at the 2000mile mark (the regulars lasted 4000 miles, I think) | ||

Well damn that sucks I thought they had the same compound in the middle and would be good for about the same amount of miles. I'll be switching back after this set since I never felt like the regular ones were pasty or in any way gonna let me slide out even with a knee down.(Except that one time I touched the line) | ||

well here is the thing... the centers of my 2 cts still have many many miles in them the edges are going on mine... Center:  Edge:  edit: I commute on the buell everyday so its not like the center does not get used... Its just that the sides wear much faster, or I am just abusing them too much...

I don't do track days. My current situation only lets me ride to n from work at lunch(under 10 miles) and a short curvy blast after work. So mabye my edges will fare a little better. Now if I could just GET my bike back n get em mounted I'll be golden. | ||
