I'm sure it's more tire than any of us need (goes without saying
) What sort of wear did you get out of it?

I've seen that ad - anyone care to compare an experience with a 209 front to a 211? I've only run 211's. |

I'm guessing it's not quite as good as the 211, but I know there are plenty of riders out there that have gone faster on the 209 front than I'm capable of going on any tire... |

How many days did you get? I've managed to get 4 or 5 out of a 211 front. |

I actually still have a couple 209 take offs in the garage that look like they could go a few more track days no problem. I don't think you'll have any trouble getting 4-5 or more days out of a 209 front. How much are you paying for the 211 front/rear combo? |

I think I'm paying around $375 for 211's - this seems like a deal so long as the front holds up close to the way a 211 does. |
