I could agree somewhat to that seeing I don't have as many problems as Kole in the same lot... But our techniques and set up may be different... As may be yours... But if that's the case... Then the tire shouldnt matter as much as people make it out to be... And why I said I'd have to see the shinko perform to believe its in the same catagory as the trusted pilot power..

I honestly feel better on the shinko then I did my pilot power

It is hard to belive but Pilot Power is old....i never wanted to try that S20 cause i was happy with the Pilot Power...now am super happy that i tried that and Pilot Power seems like furred out bikes in stuntriding for me lol.
Rowdy...shinko will be next on my list for stoppie tire! I need to try it to believe it and when high rollers use it and say its the tits...well who am i to disagree lol.

What is your suspension set at? I messed around with it once but hardly ever saw some difference in compression and rebound. Preload is always all the way in for me.

That is true... But what brings me back to the pilot power is its consistency and it is proven to myself... I tried a couple of the newer Dunlop qualifiers and didn't feel they had the consistency of the pilots so I went back...

I'd be open to try other tires but haven't had any better experience with anything yet... And wasn't pleased at all with the two shinkos I've used so far, but those were rears

but hey if toler the roller uses em... why not give them a try...
