I used them when I first started tracking my bike, and they were phenomenal tires for the extent of my abilities back then. I would highly recommend them for your bike if you plan on doing any track days in the prospective future. They warm up quick, provide good feed back and are a very predictable tire as well. Gives plenty of warning when they start to slide.

Now that being said, for the road I'm not sure how much benefit you would reap off them unless you are a very aggressive rider. If you like doing long rides out in the back roads and are a bit of a nutter I'm sure you'd love them, but as CharlieH said if you're just more of a casual rider going on the occasional spirited ride, the Michelin Pilot Powers will be more than adequate (2ct or even pilot power 3). They'll probably last a little longer and provide better rain siphoning if you ever get stuck in wet weather conditions.
