I last ran 208GP's on a track day and they're perfect for our bikes I think... But I'm no Mick Doohan so what do I know!! (Schwantz maybe!)
If you want a bike that you can ride in all weather then I'd go for the 207gp if you can find them, as the 208/9gp's have a lot less tread, so really aimed at dry tracks...
