    pilot road's vs road 2's

    PR2 is the best I have found The first 7,000 miles on a coast to coast two up and carring a lot of gear the rear tire was begining to wear uneven but since then with normal weight and a suspension adjustment . I am now @ 13400 on these wearing smooth but time for a new set.
