I'm thinking of changing the tyres on my 10 to 209GP's....see what they are like...but more for road use...

I've not really got on with my Corsa III's....just feel wrong for my riding style....

Anyone tried this for the road?  Or perhaps I should go for Supercorsa Pro's (however, reckon I'll eat these in no time if I do a few commutes)

Try a set of 209's , i don't know why but the dunlops seem to suit my riding, with the duel compound you should get some miles out of them, suggest medium front and go for an endurance rear.

mate if it`s an ntec it will be 24 psi hot but your warmer wont get it hot enuff after your session take the presure asap and bleed back to 24 psi
if its not an ntec run it at 28psi hot again do your session and bleed back depending on how hot it is you might have to go back to 22 psi for an ntec depends on track temp,how hard your riding it and  how much you are tearing the tyre.

some folk tell you to run the rears 19psi cold but i`ve tried it and the tyre gets to hot
