I had alpha 10's on mine but they didnt last 5 minutes. Swapped to Pilot Powers and found them to be a lot better, warm up quickly, loads of grip and seem to last forever, only just got onto my second rear.

I've used Dunlop A10's and Conti Sport Attacks. the Alphas were awesome, but like wallie said, they last 5 minutes.Conti's took longer to warm up, but were comparable to the dunlops for grip. They lasted a bit longer too, although still only approx 5000 kms. That said, due to replace my older sport attacks and been told that they now have a graduated compound so they last longer in the centre.

Michelin power pures
160 fits on the rear.....and you will not be able to break these loose unless you want to........no bs.

dual compound will help you out too.....no more flat track for us city riders.
