Change of tyre manufacturer, more cornering confidence?

[Punkstig]

One thing nobody's mentioned is temperature, somebody kicked off a while ago on a sports bike forum because their super sticky expensive sports tyres were slipping all over the shop scaring them and losing all confidence in corners- quite simply it wasn't possible for him to get them up to the required temperature on the road and for the time of year in order for them to start gripping.
Sports touring tyres these days are extremely well suited to our roads and temperatures, the better weather over the weekend would have made a difference though!
stay with that type imo!
