ok…i know im a die hard Bridgestone fan…but as my usual place didnt have any in stock…i thought ide go with another brand of tyre…
im a bit nervus about the whole thing as tyres are a mans best freind when riding your bike…
after lots of chats(cheers gsxrresurector:satisfied i decided to go with the Pirelli Diablo corsa 3’s…
ive heard there a good tyre and its one to be trusted…but as its not a BT014…and im abit synical…i know…i know…byest i should say…but im just not used to pirelli…
so here goes…
all i can say is at a fist ride,the bike handles good as theres actully some tread on them rubber and ive got so used to riding with a square rear…that ive got to get back into the swing of things again…but so far so good…
just need to get all that shiney crap off them to get some real feedback…
They do feel different to Bridgestones due their profile…They seem to fall into the turn at first until you get used to 'em, but they’re very confidence inspiring when scrubbed in.
Much better than the standard Diablo which I found to be awful on my R1. Just the rear though, the front Diablo is fine paired with a rear Corsa 3.
