I didn't like the front 014 - on sharp turns (like the last corner at Silvers) it felt like it was going to tuck, and it did slide on me twice.

I reckon you'll be fine simple...I had BT014's on my K4 Gixxer and loved em...however I changed to D208RR's and they turned in like a bastard!

However, I did two and a bit trackdays on my OEM Qualifiers and bloody loved em!  Knee down the whole shabang (and did a pre-race bred Glenn to on em)

It may be worth ringing a good tyre dealer and speaking to them...BT014's should be fine as they are a real half way house. Sporty yet resilent and will hold in the wet.  You see some guys going trackdays on all sorts of tyres and get unbelievable amounts of grip.

Maybe see if anyone could get you a set of scrubs for your 08 TD's?  The racetecs I had off Glenn were awesome!
