Got ya. If you get a chance, give the Duro HF918 a try on the street. I went thru a set of Conti Force super moto tires on my 300, same ones I run on my KTM sumoto wheels, and then tried the Duros. I have pushed them in parking lot turn drills and they aren't bad. I haven't spooned any on the sumoto, yet. Not sure I trust them under that bike at its level of power and braking.

I'll probably try them anyway. They smoke the IRC in feel. Cold they get greasy and I have them pretty much destroyed at 4000 miles, same as the Contis which should have been changed far earlier. They are my go to tire for the Ninja now. $130 a pair delivered.
