Had BT023 and Mich PR3 on my gen 1 Thou (amongst others). I definitely can't out ride a tyre but I did find the PR3 very confidence inspiring especially in the wet. PR4 are said to be softer so may not last as long but I've not had them.
Literally just fitted a pair of T30 Evos to my Street Triple and it absolutely chucked it down within 5 minutes of leaving the fitters. Rode 20 miles in flash floods and big hailstones on brand new tyres with no issues but that's all so far! Guys on the Street forum all raving about M7RR. Much lighter bike than the Thou though. Also a sportier profile so it turns in quicker and is probably more stable right on the edge. I find sport touring tyres better though at normal lean angles - warm up quicker, better in rain and last longer.
