What air pressure? I saw some guys using the newer Michelin Pilot Power last week and torn between the two. The Pilot was still bogging down a Busa and a 1000 with anything under 22 psi! I run my U-soft at 12psi and would love to run anything with that much air. The shinko is cheaper though!

The pilot power one is a beast,It cost sooo much though.A guy I know has a 08 busa with a big motor and the bottle on it,the bike sits at 66 inchs,he left on the bottle and on the street at that and stood straight up. It is simply amazing

Thanks for the info.............I am already in the low 1.5 range but I want to bust into the 1.4s. I am going to try this slick but I need to be able to run it at more than 15psi to justify being cheap, lol. I run a U-soft now and I am at 12-14psi for a 1.5 60ft. I want the Power One but I will run a 008 for 100 bucks cheaper if I can add some more air and hook.

That is what I am looking for!

I mean your 60ft, lol!
lots of practice and was steady mid 1.50's until I welded the clutch up aand cut my seat down then booom 1.40's all day 22psi u-soft but hey no doubt the slick is a bad tire

I am in the 1.4 range now! Went to track last night with my 16-45t and I am there now. It took playing with different gearing and really working on that clutch hand. I pin the throttle and use that clutch like a gas pedal. I was finishing off that U-soft to mount my new slick from Spencer cycles.

I run a 008 slick. I'm 306lbs and get consistant 1.50 60ft times. I'm trying more gear, I added a drag seat and will try spraying it in the 1st 60ft and see what happens. Shooting for more like 1.40 or better, I may be asking for too much but I'm giving it a shot.
