Looks like an upgrade of the Pirelli Diablo, but its not a replacement for the Diablo Corsa. ie. Street, not high performance "can go afew trackdays" tyre.

 

If the price is right I'll be getting this next. :D Hope they bring in 190/55

 

why not Mich 2CT ? and yes 190/55 is really good

i think the 2ct wear off quite fast. DCIII lasted me 6 track sessions.

I think the new diablo rosso would be a hell lot better in performance but not sure abt the wearing off.

hi i'm riding a zx6r 07...

kinda dunno which tyre to get...

went for 2sessions with my bt015(stock) bt kinda lost grip towards the end...

can sum1 give me an advice....

 

Is urs the orange 1, staying at Sengkang?

 

I'm not really sure abt those tyres. But what ever tyres u wanna get, depends on how often and what u wanna use ur bike for? If u're only using ur bike for track, then i suggest those semi-slicks; Michelin Power Race, Pirelli Dragon Supercorse, etc.

 

If u're going to use u're bike for daily use and occasional track use, u may wanna try Michelin 2CT or Pirelli Diablo Corsa III. They both are design for street and track with medium compound in the centre and soft at the sides.

So far from experience and comments from others, the 2CT slides easier then the Corsa III.

nopez.. i'm riding the green one....

i lpan to use my bike more for track as i have a side bike....

maybe use my ninja as a weekend bike....

btw wat u mean by slide easily??

 

Power slide?

sometimes during leaning into a corner,and when u accelarate too early or too much, rear tyre might just 'spin' faster than the front. Maybe the tyre couldn't take the heat anymore.

haiz i'm so confused on wich tyre to change to....

racetec/power race/pirelli dc???

 

Try 2CT Michelin

 

Monsteramy's 3 choices are semi slicks and doesn't include 2CT. hee.

 

If i was given that question, i'll go dor the Pirelli DC (Dragon Corsa) :thumb:

A 180/55 feels good on the track. Unless ur rims are too wide then u have to get a 190/55.

I know the pics are not from SG, i know raptor is in the US.......

Because Yen said he saw 002s at PG so i ask whether the bike is SG reg or MY reg :dot:
