Both are good tyres though imo.

Both are good tyres though imo. I am a bit of an odd one in that I am looking for a tyre that wears down quick because my tyres get old before they get worn and so I end up keep them too long.I have an 023 on the front and an 021 on the back at the moment and I do under 1000 miles a year.
i have pilot road 2 s 2cts a friend had the same bike with pilot power 2cts felt the same he never had a problem neither did i

Fazersharp, they do warm up quickly but not like the Pr3/4 which appear to be up to temp in half a mile, I would not push the M7 until at least a mile. I have never lost traction with them, but their optium definitely takes a little longer.
Oh some advice especially for you, they are fuck all use on ice or on hydraulic oil from tractors
