I have PP's front and rear right now. But I'm thinking PP front and Road 2 rear for the next set.

Heard it's a good combo, and the way the buell eats rear tires... harder compound can't hurt.

Running different tires makes/brands on front and rear these days with radials isn't as bad as it used to be with the old belted and bias-ply tires, but it still isn't what they were designed to work with. If I had a freebie to throw on and it was different, I still would, but I would take it easy for a bit before I pushed them, to see if they had any wierd/different characteristics or anything.

I think you need to get a less sticky rear... that way maybe next time you will just spin the tire instead of looping it.
