[QUOTE="ShinyPartsUp, post: 907079, member: 2341"] The PRII is my choice of tire till now. After some 40,000 miles on them, they are a great tire. Not as good in the wet as Avon Storms but very good. I hated the Z6 because I couldn't keep a line in fast corners with it -- but too many variables to say it was the tire. As for tire noise, you guys have better hearing than I do if you hear it over road, traffic and wind noise. I just finished a run through the I5 passes from California to Oregon on a very-near-done PRII front. I managed 80+mph on 6% or more grades at a fairly good lean angle without issues. I did have to apply more countersteering, but that is to be expected on a tire with about 9000 miles on it (a lot for me). The tire is done in at this point. I run 42 front and rear -- as Fred said they like higher pressures. I'm not trying to say other people's experiences are incorrect, merely add my experience. [/QUOTE]
