    Does anyone have a view on Pirelli sport demon tyres? good / bad?
    Then I could get a Kb Tshirt, move to Timaru and become a full time crossdressing faggot

    They are great for smaller bikes... e.g 250's / 400's. think that is because they are not available in sizes for big bikes.

    Hated them on my small bike, lost heat too fast unless you're going for it the whole time. I think Sarge used them on his FJ tank though, and said that they were great...PM him maybe.

    where opinion holds more weight than fact.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

    Hahaha ahh well!!

    I went to cycle treads on the weekend, and got some info on the tires, the M3's which is what I am looking at getting now seem quite reasonable.

    I was also thrown a suggestion about Diablo tires. These seem deeper in grooves and are more suited for wet riding as well as dry. So now I'm in a confused state again!?!!

    If the tread has a deeper groove/ cut does this mean its better suited for wet weather riding?

    I would reccomend you seriously STAY AWAY from diabolicals. Hell they let go on the cbr600 at times.

    Got myself a set of M3's fitted and done around 800kms on them so far. Can't fault them at all and I have really developed a lot of confidence in them. I'm still a newbie as far as larger bikes go but since fitting these tyres I've been pleasantly suprised at how well the bike handles and responds.

    I never had a problem with Diablos, fine in all conditions. But I doubt that there'd be a noticable difference between them an the M3's in the wet.
    Either will be fine, buy the cheapest.

    Ha...I knew you'd come around and like them once the front was properly scrubbed (scrubbing it in on wet Coro roads is not too easy)

    M3's stick like super sticky donuts I was hooning around the Coro on them with damp roads and it was perfect. M3's are like my default choice for tires now.... Just like how others swear by the Pilot powers I think
