    Do you find they 'tramline' a bit more than 010's?
    Perhaps I should rephrase that as "more sensitive to road surfaces"?

    Not disturbingly so and certainly consistent.

    They do seem to work nicely in the rain too.

    My tyres are knackered so I'll watch this thread with interest. Who's
    running what on litre sportbikes?

    207RRS on my Thunderace. I like my tyres like my women, cheap and
    sticky.

    ISTR the 012s I had on my GSXR made things "interesting" on overbanding or
    on rutted roads like the M4

    I find the comment "Will you be her first?" in the description quite
    disturbing.

    Not that the idea of fucking inflatable women is not disturbing in itself,
    mind you... No imagination, some people.

    How about 1.2 litre superbikes ;-)
    207 or 208's on mine. Can't remember, but much more grip than the
    020's on the bird in the dry. Also seems to have a different profile
    as drops into bends quite viciously but seems stable when it's there.

    Not sure about wet performance, but I managed to lock the rear up
    easily [1] when it was cold on wet tarmac the other day.

    Cheers,

    Paul.

    Isn't that more to do with being back on your Gixxer from a VFR?

    Ex-owners of 1.2 litre supertankers have been more than happy with Azaro 3s.
