Buying Tires soon - what to get?
Is anyone aware of some recent reviews on tires? I'm thinking about going with either the Pirelli Diablo Corsa III or Michelin Pilot Road 2's, but don't really know what's what. Maybe I should just get the same tires that the bike came with....Any info is appreciated. Holla atcha boy!

How many miles do you have on your bike? I remember you bought it new last Fall. I personally like the Dunlop Qualifiers.

the bike has about 2600 miles and the dealership said the tires need to be changed asap. as far as the two tires i mentioned being very different, that's why i'm asking you guys - i know nothing about tires other than making sure to NOT buy them through the dealership, since they're more expensive there. i went onto ebay and was looking for front and rear sets and those are the ones i found, so that's why i mentioned them in my post. i was looking around for recent articles comparing tires, but didn't come across anything.

Look into the Michelin Pilot Powers or Michelin Pilot Power CT2. You won't be disappointed
When comparing tires, look at these things based on your riding style
[*]Tire Profile[*]Compound (Hard, Med, Soft..etc)[*]Warm up times[*]Wet Traction[*]Durability

For straight road use, the straight Pilot Powers are the way to go. The 2CT's are more for track days and such...and the Road Pilots are for touring type bikes...nothing is better than the Michelin Pilot Powers.
