Options please on tyres

[Bondy]

Can I have your options please on the following tyres:-

Mezeler Soprtec M-1

Pirelli Diablo Corsa

Pirelli Dragon Supercorsa

Dunlop D208

The reson is that Pirelli dont make the Dragon Evo anymore. So your Opition would a great help.

I dont care about wear rates or price just good grip and good looks

Diablo corsa front and standard Diablo rear mate !!

Works for me and works well on track !!!

Hell, I even did the trackday on sports tourer Diablo Strada's, not a single slide all day I've become quite a Pirelli man myself, never let me down.

I have got standard Pirellis on mine and never ever had a moment

[TLS-Moose]

I would not recommend the Supercorsa as a road tyre - I have them on at the moment (though not much longer looking at the wear rate) and they just do not generate enough heat on the road to give reliable performance.

Though not ridden in the wet stuff yet, they are reckoned to be plain scary in the wet.

Michelin Pilot Power or Pirelli Diablo's seem to be current flavour of the month

[CBR_LOVER]

I'm currently running a pair of D208's on my cbr1000 and can't
fault them.Got 'em for £135 for the pair as well.

They are getting close to needing replacement now thou,
having done over 3000 miles..

Mossey your talking testicles

Love ya really, I am running on Supercorsa's on the road, only because they were on there for the track day, and they are $hit hot.

Mind you, I do agree wouldnt like to ride them in the wet.

I usually use Diablo Corsa front, and Diablo rear. Use the 675 a lot, with Supecorsas, they are stunning in the dry, and actually good in the wet so don't be afraid to use them at all. I think with wear rate etc in mind as well, go with the Corsa front and normal diablo rear. More grip than you'll ever use on the road, just a bit firm on the rear one for track.

michelin 2ct's iv heard are very very good, but ive never had a problem with the diablos.

[gixerdrew]

SWopped form BT014's (Good but high wear rate) to standard Diablos following recent recommendation from Age & others and have to say they are brill

[baskie]

Pirelli Diablo Corsa

Pirelli have discontinued the Dragon & Dragon Evo range around 4 years ago as they released the Diablo & Diablo Corsa as a better tyre.

Both are cracking tyres with an amazing amount of grip. I you don't mid how long your tyres last then I would recommend the Diablo Corsa as the profile on them is amazing. Altough you will get loads more miles from the straight Diablo.

I personally run a Diablo Corsa on the front and a Diablo on the rear and have plenty of grip through wind rain or shine. I am also blessed with a 180 tyre on the rear, I know Age's bike is meant to run a 190, but he prefers the 180 as it suits more roads down here.

Run standard diablos on my CBR 6 aint had one scare on them and can really hack them in the rain too.

Got some shite dunlop on the Buell will be putting diablos on that too when the rear is shot! would tell you there even worse in the wet but the buell dont run in the wet! (quiet Mark-Mille )

[TLS-Moose]

Bondy, if you have the dosh, I'd go for the Diablo's or the Power's .... on the other hand, if you really like the Dragons ..... looks like there might be some old stock in places
