Pirelli Dragon Super Corsa DOT's about $265 a set from track day vendors.

T-2 at T-Hill can be tough on tires if your air pressure is a little low. 22 psi cold Ducati 1098


Better air pressure worse suspension set-up, rebound, compression, and preload need some attention. 24 psi cold Ducati 1098


Relatively close air and suspension settings. 26 psi cold KTM 1190, less tq than the Ducati.


Here's one of many tuning videos by cycle suspension guru Dave Moss:
