on the subject of the maxxis, i found found pretty good on the 750. Heated up quick and felt good, i think on a 400 your have to work em a bit harder to get the heat in them

Also on the subject of the Maxxis - a friend done a track day with me and found them great, he was getting right over and the tyres weren't hopping around or anything. I think as DM said, getting them hot is hard on the road, especially on a 400

Stick with the maxxis tyres, you will get used to the feel of em. I used to always use either 090's or diablo H's but i would never change back now. They heat up very quickly and are superb in the dry, average in the wet but hey ho. Have you adjusted the tyre pressures at all.
