    OK the rear on the R1 needs changing (3rd this year)
    the Dunlop 208's while nice and sticky giving loads of confidence just don't
    warrant the rate of wear
    Any suggestions to a replacement, the fronts still a 208 that won't need
    changing till prob April next year
    so it'll need to be ok with mixed makes for the time being.
    I've been told R1's dont like Bridgestone 010's... so what do I get ?
    thanks

    Just ask the tyre guys. I'm sure they know.

    My rear Corsa's racked up over 5000 miles so far, incl 4 track days. I'm
    going for 10.

    Porl bored us all completely to death with wittery prose along the
    lines of:
    Is that 'cos you ride like a gurl?

    I seriously can't think of any other reason that could possibly be
    believable.
