I'm not going to on the street when I'm not wearing leathers. I have nightmares of getting my knee down without my pucks.

Yeah, I never really have liked the 2CT's. My Dunlop Sportmax Qualifiers have been exellent, but maybe it is just the bike they are attached to.

really? i'd be more concerned with oncoming traffic rather then optimum grip on the DY, that's just me though. it looks like you're turning in way to early.

i gave Qualifiers a chance, didn't like them. they had a tendency to grease up rather quickly at a brisk pace.

I've heard that they are that way at the track (or VERY spirited canyon rides)... I haven't had a chance to track the bike yet, and my on-road manners keep me from riding them too hard.

They look like they are good for another 1,000 miles before replacement, which will put them right about the 7,200 mile mark.

I was going to say the same thing. If you don't want to mess up your knees because you're not using pucks, then don't push it. Bad body position CAN cause a crash. I know this because it happened to me.

+1. Even though your bike is still in your lane, when your leaned over like that your head is at risk of decapitation to oncoming traffic. There's been times when i'm in my car and I nearly strike out fellow squids. be safe and learn from the others as well. good input from everyone

Although that one spread eagle leg pic is jokes!

Are those regular jeans or the kevlar type?
