Kieth's 'get the throttle cracked' advice seems to work wonders on this machine - great book!
I'm also on Pilot Road 3's and think they're great tyres but...
The profile of the front is _much_ more relaxed than a sports tyre, and I'm a little too aggressive for it when turning in.
For example the Pilot Power front has an almost triangular profile (riding on a knife edge) in comparison.
Anyway, easiest is to start at the back and work forwards.
A bit of squat is required for a successful 'on line' corner exit, but too much is going to make it run wide - Does an extra click or two of low speed compression damping make any difference?
