They sound good in theory and would be great for commuting in the summer as the middle is slightly harder for distance and the sides softer for cornering. Well thats kind of how I see them lol.
I was looking at them recently aswell but they aint cheap. I went with the Pirelli Diablos which I've had my knee down with (in the freezing cold). I also wanted to give it a bit of time when considering the Pilot Powers as they're new and I'd like to hear long term feedback bout them.

So Diablos on the Zx6 now then? Have you had your knee down on it yet?

Exactly what I'm waiting on mate, they do seem quite nice
Not that I'm a Michelin fan bt I have to say all the hype is good. Bit like the BT012SS when they were the dogs. It seems all the power is in the Michelin camp atm.
I a have them on offer til the end of the month 120 £82.72 180 £115.67 190 £115.67 anything as an order below £120 cost for delivery :o( That all said lean angle is nothing if you are as slow as me round corners ha ha.

You couldn't give me a little more info on them by any chance could you?
there =1st place as a road tyer that you can use on the track along with diablo corsa's very good in the wet and dry, has sofster edges for max grip on lean. you cant go wrong with either tyer mate. road tyers heat up faster so beter at this time of year, try 36psi front and rear to start with. enjoy

What do you wanna know? the flyer I have in front of me says Marco Melandri trial ha an angle of 51.2° on these and proper racing slicks managed 55° a difference of only 8% not bad considered.
Front has dual compound 80% soft - Med 10% either side soft Rear 78% Med 11% either side soft-med. Its the technology that won the 2005 MotoGP World Championship.
