Few folks are giddy over the performance of OEM Qualifiers, I know they were simply terrible on my 10R. I did a trackday on them to burn them off, and I knew I'd be taking it easy for the 1st day on track with that bike. They lived up to their poor rep, with inconsistent feel, only OK grip until they got greasy and lost much of their grip, and very quick wear as well.

Kinda having the same sentiment here so far...

I don't even think I'm gonna bother tracking them. I'll wait til I get something better. (And some track plastic)
