Need someone to suggest a tire for me.
I'm now looking more to go straight line fast, instead of eating up the curves. My tires are due to be changed and I'm looking for something that is going to last a little longer than the really sticky tires like my Pirelli Corsa III.
At the same time I'm not looking for touring tire because it still needs to be able to hook, as well as still be a little sticky for when I do decide to go have fun in the curves. Looking for something on the cheaper side too, as I have a feeling I'll be replacing the rear a lot more often lol.

I keep hearing great things from michlen pilot road 2 even thought it might be classified as a touring tire. Should last longer than your pirelli corsa 3, and still have decent grip in the twisties. You are sure asking alot out of a tire. lol

Lol I really am looking to go more in to drag, but I don't want to buy a Shinko as it will never really see the strip, just mainly street duty.

I went with a Conti Motion,
I haven't had a chance to ride with them on the 10 yet,
But I put a set on the 6R and they handle the curves good and have a longer
center tread life.
Plus, they are not expensive which is a plus with as many tires as I go thru.
Got each set for $172 delivered to my door.
I bought a total of 6 tires at once because of the good price.
Shop around for who has the best sale at the time.

The contis are good for mileage and price. You'll hear lots of good about them. If you want more grip at a fairly cheap price the bt-016's are great tires. Mileage will be an issue though.

There was a sale going on when I bougjt mine + they have free shipping when your order is over 99 bucks.
Check their recent prices and if they are higjer now,
Just google Motorcycle Tire Sale and shop around for the best prices.
Make sure to check shipping, a decent company will ship for free over 99 bucks.
