YES, It's a good deal indeed. Sportbike Track Gear is a site sponsor on GDC and these are their prices with shipping included.

120/70/17 front & 190/50/17 rear $259.95
120/60/17 or 120/70/17 front & 160/60/17 rear $232.95
All sizes are available in the Pilot Powers, these are our combo deals

PILOT POWER 2CT
120/70/17 front & 180/55/17 rear $264.95
120/70/17 front & 190/50/17 rear $284.95

We will suggest this for some as a track day combo




I'm still waiting on them to get the 190/55-17 Pilot Power 2CT in stock, they said April timeframe

OK again I will ask....and to everyone...How do the PP 2ct compare against the Corsas?
If it's the same shit than I may as well get the PP's No?

Diablo Corsa? Supercorsa Pro? Diablo Supercorsa?
The PP is like a Diablo Corsa, Street/Track. Compared to the other 2, there is no comparison.

Look at it like this:


Pilot Powers = Diablo Corsas

Pilot Power 2CTs = Diablo Corsa 3's

Power Race = Pirelli Supercorsas


Each are a great tire, when comes to the DOTs though I would lean towards the Supercorsas

I had Corsa IIIs on my old bike, they seemed pretty similar to my Diablos (stock tire) but I got them late in the season and have since sold the bike. I like the idea of the dual compound tires but haven't really seen anyone saying they're really that much better. Maybe that's because they've been kind of slow coming out with them?

It's a really good deal. I know Brian Van, who runs STG, from when I lived in Michigan. Good guy, great to deal with & STG had some great deals. I picked up a set of Power Races for $265!

Thanks, that's what I was looking for in my question.
Who would put them on for ya? If I were to take it to WCW...would they put em on even if I didn't buy them from there. I like how they mount and balance tires.
Cakes? anyone with WCW experience?

Perfect! That will be just as much if not a little cheaper than when I got tires for the 6.

I did a shit load of searching, and that's by far the best deal you're going to get on PP's. And I think that's an all time price, won't get any higher. If they do end up going higher though, the next best deal is on ridenow.com

They said those prices will stay the same throughout the 2007 season.
