    I have Pilot road 4`s, on my xjr1300, best tyres I've had. Expensive yes but you normally have to pay for quality

    Are they 'standard' or 'trail'...and do you know the difference?
    I only have one vice…I lie.

    I have standard on mine, as they do 3 rear tyres, the GT is for heavier loading and they do one for as you say the trail.

    What I do know is they have a dual compound, which is slightly different with it being hard down the centre and medium on the edges.

    On my bike they are very stable and given me great confidence.

    By pure coincidence I happened to approach my rear end this morning at exactly the right angle to the sun and thought...'damn, that things worn out quickly, double damn'.
    Having checked however I seems that I've done 6.4 k miles in the last 10 months, so not too bad wear.

    I have decided to go for a PR4. Will report later.
