Im leaning towards the Pirelli- Diablo Corsa for my rear tire. Any comments on this tire?

Americanmototire.com one of the cheapest places I have found with a qide selection of tires.

 

Im a Dunlop fan but have used several different brands.

 

matters how much agressive riding you do. the Diablo corsas are meant for incredible grip during either trackdays or spririted rides throguh the canyons. great tire to mount on an extra set of rims if you do a bunch of trackdays. only problem with pirelli in general is they have a short life span. mainly beacuse the compound is so soft.

 

I agree w/ fullmetalf4i. Soft ='s grip but also ='s short life span which ='s $$$ for another set of tires. Most tires will have a compound rating along with mileage expectancy. Most types of softer compounds getting mileage of around 2500 miles (street tires), medium compounds around 5000 and harder compounds around 7500+. These all could be way off + or - depending on how you ride. I personally got over 5500 miles out of a tire that was only rated for 2500 and could have gone more but i sold that bike. All depends on how you ride.

 

check it...the diablo strada is a sport touring tire but it grips pretty darn well and right now...you can get the front for free if you purchase the rear!

 

americanmototire.com is my opinion as well, best prices i have seen.

 

Stock on my bike was michelan.

I will ride around town and country. No track days, but sometimes I might drive it like Im at the track! Im looking for a good general tire that will give me great traction and last for a decent length of time. Dunlop sounds like a good plan?

 

Like I said before. I like Dunlop.
