It perform best in hot and dry condition but also is the one that i can trust in the wet. Ridden in heavy storm on the twisted highway but i never need to speed down too much like i have been in Pirelli SC which sucks too much on the wet.
Clocked 4000km now, which i emptied 2 full tanks on the track and still the tire is still in their 40% condition(10% track, 70% on highways, 20% on country roads). might change it after i hit 1000 or 2000km more or 1 more Sepang trackday as i can sells it as 2nd hand rather than use it up and throw away
fitted on ZX10R 2013

Fitted for the last session of a trackday at Rockingham, replacing Pirelli Diabli Rosso Corsas. I built up speed slowly but don't think I needed to. By the end of the session I was the fastest I'd been all day. I don't think I was anywhere near their limit - I need to learn to hang off the bike a lot more for these tires. Have been playing with the rearsets to try and help me get off the side. Looking at the wear I was right on the edge of the rear and they were absolutely planted. Felt like they had hooks on them.
They just felt good immediately. I think you'd need to be pretty good to want more in the dry.
Conditions were warm and dry. Think I was running 30F/28R and I think they are medium compound both ends.
