Forgot to add , I've just tried a set of Dunlop Qualifiers.

Never been a fan of Dunnys before, (bit unpredictable) but these are very confidence inspiring....

Contisport tyre pressures: 36 and 42 front/rear.

Probably the highest manufacturer reccomendation i've seen on a tyre for the 400. i had better results out of em when i dropped the rear to 40.5/41.

my zxr750 has d208's on it atm and their wonderful in the dry. slightest bit of water though it's like riding on ice, dial in half a mm too much throttle and the back of the bike starts to think it's capirossi's GP bike. Put a lot of roundabouts into your journey and they square off quite quickly even faster on cold damp roads.

i always use pirellie supercorsa pro's (track) and have not found any bad points for them yet - sold some part worn set to friends for the road and they loved them 2 - ive got 20 or 30 sets of part worns lying around my garage - email me at zxrracer@btinternet.com if you want to buy some to try - they will impress you!

I finally got myself a new set of tyres today lads i decided to go for the bridgestone bt-014s they seemed pretty solid even driving home in the wet! running in new tyres in the rain not a good idea lol
