    Just bought a new blade sp and the above are standard fit, but seriously thinking of telling the dealer to swap them to Michelin pilot power 2ct or the pilot power 3s, heard the diablos are terrible in the wet and as I live in Scotland we get lots of wet days, I would rather ride on tyres I'm used to had them on my RR6 for the last 10 years, what's your thoughts on the super corsas and would you do the same

    Cheers

    Cold or wet sp 's aren't good IMO
    Lack feel when colder.
    I prefer rosso corsa for road as I get as much grip as I need on road and they are good in cold conditions .

    I forgot there is a 10c difference in temperature here in the costa del south,although we probably have more potholes! How bad are the roads now it's gone beyond the joke

    Another for the Metzeller m7rr, very good so far. They will get their first track workout in June as well.

    I got a bit of a weird wear pattern at the track. Must be down to suspension setup?

    Just told the dealer to stick Michelin pilot power 3s on, can't see past pilot powers, been using them for years and read nothing but good reports on the 3s, sometimes better going with what you know:)

    On another note anyone want to buy a pair of Diablo supercorsa sp's heard they are brilliant on a dry track:)

    I'd say £160 delivered would have me opening my wallet. Still got a few more track days left on my current tyres but at that price I'd be willing to buy my next set early.

    I would say that's a bit cheap, I haven't looked to hard for pair deals yet but that's around 80 quid cheaper, I was thinking around the 200 mark myself

    Fair enough. Cheapest pair deal I can find is £220. Would split the difference and offer £180, but higher than that I'll probably wait. You could always put them in the for sale section and see if anyone else is interested. Happy to leave that offer on the table for a while.

    Thanks mate, I don't pick up my bike until next Saturday anyway so I ain't in any rush, I will put them on eBay and see what happens, but will keep you in mind

    Cheers
