We have been chasing a front end chatter for what seems like forever so its time for a different tire.

Currently on the B-Stones 003R and want to give the Pirelli another shot.  I heard there was a correct 110/140 combo available but cant seem to find it all I see is the 150 rear.

Not sure if there is a new 150 rear cause we had the SC1 150 rear on the bike before and it gave a flat tire sensation. Wallowing on corner exit and all the way to the next braking point. Increasing spring preload helped but the tire required a lot of PSI to feel stable at high exit speeds and was never quite right, hence switching to the B-Stone 140....problem solved. Now he is at full tilt and the B-Stone front cant handle the loads, even with the Emulator kit.......... Maybe a Pirelli -F B-Stone -R combo?????

Thanks, Anthony

I experienced front end chatter the weekend I tried a set of Bridgestones on my RSV4.  No amount of adjustments would fix it.  Going back to Pirellis it was fine.   The Bridgestone carcass was just too stiff to work with everything else.

Did you try the R10's? they have a softer carcass, also go with the mediums T3, not the softs T4. That chassis isn't really strong enough for a high grip tire. It will bind it up and cause problems.
