Um AMA superbike racers use them : http://www.dunlopracing.com/fitment-2009.html
Maximized for leaning over with their high horsepower machines. Think of these new tires as a Drag slick for the corners


Just a spec chart if they did use them

Those are track day tires you are talking about and are dot legal race tires. The ones im talking about are not street legal and are full race slicks , the 180 and 190 aren't used as much by the top race teams ,but the 195 and 200 are . You can't buy these tires unless you are race team thus you won't see them on the fleBay.

Oh yeah its shaped way different ! Like I said it's like a drag slick for the corners . Those guys use it to hook up their machiens that are putting over 200hp to the ground while dragging ther elbows in the turns!
