I'm missing something here...  :-[

Riding up (down?) SP27 toward (from?) Bergamo, Italy; passing everything in front of you, with a really old guy on an antique  900cc Diversion on your tail... And you're worried about the traction of a different set tires?

Be real. :)

PR4's are fine. If they squirm around some, play with it. That means you're getting comfy. If you ain't slidin', you ain't ridin'.

Anyway, in case you read my latest post, I got a new set of tyres now that came with a bike attached to them: Michelin Pilot Road 3. I have to say that they feel very planted in the rain and most of all I loved the lighter effort on the handlebar to counter steer and keep the bike in the curve. So, for the next couple of months, they'll do. Depending on how they age, I'll get those new RS thingies next time around.
Build bridges, not walls.

Education is important. Riding my bike is importanter.
