Can someone advise on tyre pressures for the road? Looking at the Pirelli website it shows 29/32 front and 23/26 rear which seems low to me? They are on my RR9 blade
Pirelli website says 30/32 cold front and 23/26 cold rear for the 200? http://www.pirelli.com/tyre/gb/en/motorcycle/sheet/diablo_supercorsa_sc.html
It's a balancing act for mileage vs grip. Those pressures will work great on track, but allow the tyre to deform. If you ride them on those pressures on the motorway, you'll square them off really quickly. I adjust according to the riding I'm doing. Tend to put them up to honda's settings of 42/36 on the way to the track on a straightish ride, lower to 36/32 for a windy road and down to the settings you mention for track.
What pressure's would you recommend for the SP, road and track, just purchased these tyres yesterday. Got knockhill on the 28th. Cheers. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Same as above. Difference between the SC and SP is the SP is bi-compound, so has better longevity on distance riding, but the tech recommendation from pirelli is the same. Would generally choose the SP if you road-ride and the SC for a track only bike (or if you like changing tyres!).
Thanks for that lexathon. It is road-ride I generally do. Looking forward to getting out as I've never ran these before, hope they are good. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
They're second to none in the dry when they're warm, but you'll need to take care and be very smooth if it's cold and wet. Enjoy!
Ye I've been told that their not the best in the wet. Thanks again lexathon. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
