Thanks in advance

Just had some Rosso IIs fitted.

Scrubbed them in on the way home from the store. Seem to be really good so far.

Pirelli are offering a £25 cashback offer on a pairs of their new tyre range at the moment

Mine's wearing Diablos at the moment. Seem to be wearing very evenly and I've not had any "moments" I could put down to the tyres.

They are nice stable hoops. fine in the wet ,Great in the dry.

I've got a set of diablo stradas fitted and can't fault them in the dry although wet performance isn't superb, recently had the rear start to spin up at 60mph when overtaking on a dual carriage way although tyres been cold and been a little over eager with the throttle was propably the main cause

Mine are Corsa 3 's

had a set of diablo rosso corsas fitted to my K2 track bike last week and had them out in mondello for the first time yesterday. very very impressed with them. gave me great confidence (once they were scrubbed in!). never once felt like they were gonna slide and i got them to the farthest point possible in the tyre. if there that good on the track they will be brill on the road.
