funny thing is - if you stay with the same tire for more then a year - you really don't know how the others are performing.
Tried the pilot powers & kept having the front slide & rear let lose on power.
Fitting Super Corsa's for PI this weekend, then will go back to the new Rosso corsa tires.
However - I was thinking about others, I used to love & run the bridgestones, but in very hard breaking they dont seem to hold the weight of the busa - unlike the diablo corsa's I now run.
Dunny's - have never run them since my 250 days & not keen to try them given dunny's only seem to get dev work from the super bikes.
SO I am still staying with Pirelli, they still seem to be the best for my twisty riding & trail braking to the apex's, using the 55 profile as well - can't find anything better at the moment in terms of stickyness & wear (Wear for the Corsa 3's on the road) I used to go through 2 rears to every front, now its an even wear thanks to the Pirelli diablo corsa 3 - now replaced with the Rosso.
Some have asked about the grip levels falling off as the duel compound tires wears - haven't had that on the Pirelli's - apart from the front when it really needs to get changed, front sides didn't like to hold, but then it was time to change the tire, the condition of the front was.... well it had ridges along the out side and a steep angel from the middle to the side ;)
Not as much as some busa's - but I am pulling 178hp - just for an idea when I talk about wear.
Has anyone else done the above & then switched to something other then the Pirelli's? I am thinking of trying something other then the Rosso's - but not sure on what?
