The Z8s for the Multi were exactly £200 fitted to loose wheels. The rear is a specific fitment too.

They're all good. The Z8 is the oldest design there but they've upgraded the materials they use.

You know your Pirellis.

The Contis are popular.

Yeah had the conti sa3 on the zx10r for a short while before it was sold and really liked them.

Might come down to price tbh.

The z8 are older tech but they must still be popular as there one of the dearest on that list above of above options.

From memory the Rosso 2 was a very steep profiled tyre which made it great for summer but pretty poor at winter use. Don't know if that helps at all

Nice little write up on Conti SA3 (y)

Interesting that some thundersport racers use them as an intermediate race tyre.

And 54 degree of lean on the road is more than I will ever need (blush)
