I still believe all this talk of changing tyre brands is irrelevant. if you don't have the confidence/skill call it what you will, changing tyres will not help, if anything it will only put more doubt in your head and force you to slow or lean less.
I used to fit TKV's to all my bikes, they weren't the best rubber out there but they were cheap, round and black. I was out on a ride with all the so called fast riders on their R1/6 Blades etc and I was on a battered old GPZ600R, we stopped for a tea and they were all complaining about their tyre this etc etc my only complaint was they were in my way mid corner because they couldn't either read a bend or lean it over.

Complete fabrication, I didn't make it up!
