I replaced my worn out PR3 with PR4 last year and I don't like them. In slow turns the bike wants to fall into the corners and I find myself putting feed down all the time when creeping through gridlocked traffic. With a good and proper lean angle they feel more planted but between around 5 and 30 degree lean they just don't feel stable. The grip is fine though. Anyone else have negative experiences with the PR4? I have experimented with different pressures but i'm still not satisfied. I'm riding an FZ6 with recommended 33psi front and 36psi rear. I'm actually considering going back to PR3 even though the PR4 were expensive and pretty new.

Thanks guys, I'm closing in on 2000 km on the PR4 but maybe more time is all I need. I found one review claiming the PR4 front has a "sportier profile" than the PR3 front but the rear should be the same. Is it possible that the updated front profile makes the rear feel weird? I'm not much of a tire expert.

The telepathic part might be true, but I think the new tires are too eager to please. "Oh, you want to turn a bit? I'll just turn a lot. A lot is always better than a little. Please love me."

My rear tire lost all the air over night once due to a loose valve core. It just needed tightening but I didn't have a tool available at the time. After that I bought a 5-pack of valve caps with a built in core tool to put on each of my current and future bikes.
