What's the cost of the Diablo's and corsas????
NEVER LET THE TRUTH GET IN THE WAY OF A GOOD STORY!
I gotta disagree with a couple of the guys here, the only tyre I could get on the back of my FZR when I first went racing, was a Diablo Strada, and they are shit, best I've had was a Pirelli dragon gts on the back, and super corser on the front, but I am limited by an 18" rear wheel.
Super corsers on the thou is the only way to go! And anyone that says ya cant get em hot enough on the road, is just slow.
Just got back from a 4500km trip around the South Island. I put a set of diablo's on before I left and i'm quite impressed. Very good tyre. Slightly slower steering than an M3 or Power but the trade off is very very good stability in the corners. They eat up mid-corner bumps like they're not there.
Will definately have Diablo's again.
My ratings so far:
1= Diablo
1= Metzeler M3
3rd Pilot Power
I was using corsa's and I didnt like them, when pushed they wore out bloody fast and I had far too many moments with them in the wet.
Threw a set of Conti Attacks on and having a ball with them, even hold on quite well in the wet.

looks like there are different opinions eh! thanks for the input
Why, not this few weeks past! No fault of the tyres, be the gijoe1313 sized plonker hole that was left in said flora!Yes, when I was pootling around on Miss Daisy past said spot on Daisy's Metzlers, I had the echoing refrain of "Plonker...plonker...plonker...lucky git..."
Remember kids! Don't try this on your own ride!

Probably not really relavent, but I have Pirrelii Diabolo Super Corsa Pro's on my race bike.... or 'the tyre with the big long name'. I've been told they are hopeless in the rain, but at Ruapuna yesterday in the pouring rain I had no problems at all. One thing I would say though is that they started to look almost polished on the sides. I'm not sure if that would have eventually caused a problem, but to me they felt pretty bloody good.
