I've been using Supercorsas (in SC1 front & SC2 rear) for three summers now (always change to a more suitable tyre for the winter). You have to work them hard to get them warm and "make" the grip, so they are rubbish for commuting, wet & cold weather. Infact, so much so, I'm thinking of dropping them for anything other than track days! Had a frightening slide coming down the Cat & Fiddle a few weeks back on them: it was weekend so fearing the usual police presence stuck more or less to the speed limit but was cornering quite hard (but no heroics) when I had a slide on a right hand bend. I beleive I simply wasn't working the tyre hard enough to get it warm. On the grounds of cost, if you buy at the right price (I'm averaging a little over £50 per pair inc' P&P off Ebay) and fit them yourself then they work out really cheap. Ironically they dont have a much shorter life than BT014's!. But the BT014 does have a pretty poor life to begin with!
