Hey guys, anyone running D207RR's? I just ordered some and was wondering how they feel compared to D207ZR's. Also mileage comparisons between the two would be great. Sport Rider had a tire comparo recently and didn't rate them especially high, but Performance Bikes did one and loved them. First hand experience and some opinions would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

just put a pair of RR's on mine recently.
Had BT56's on before (that were on when i bought the bike) and was not impressed at all, just had no confidence in them.
But the 207's look pretty good so far. have only put about 600 miles on em at the moment so can't give you mileage or anything but they have not done anything wrong yet. seem pretty solid, turn in nice and tight and stay where you put them in the turn.
my mate on a ZX6 swears by em, although stay away from the GP version as he put one on as an experiment and it lookes shagged after 1000 miles.
am doing a track day on tuesday so will report back from casualty if i've found where they let go images/icons/wink.gif

207RRs.....LOVE 'EM!!!
Got the same bike as you Gary, the tyres are stable and predictable on the road, small flaps on bumpy stuff on the power, grip on the track is more than I need, don't ever think about them letting go, had a very small and predictable slide on power at the end of a hot track day coming out of Melbourne Loop, but that is more down to Red Mist than tyre fault!!
Too much of a girl to ride in the wet, so can't comment on wet weather. images/icons/rolleyes.gif
Track days chew em up after 2/3 visits, so don't do enough road miles to comment on wear....sorry images/icons/frown.gif
You won't be disappointed with them though! graemlins/thumbup.gif
