Top 3 Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa Reviews

Given 59% while driving a Kawasaki z1000 (190/55 R17) on a combination of roads for 9,320 average miles
Never felt comfortable riding with them. every imperfection of the road changes the bikes lane. Trying to lean about more than 20 degrees the front slips. every singe time... they heat up immediately while riding in the highway at high speed and have a decent grip and braking but in city diving they never heat up.. so braking with them is a risk. Its like braking with an aged dry tyre. Bought them in september 2019 (production date 0819) and three months later the rear tyre cracked its profile both sides and i could see the threads inside... Front and rear 6 months later from purchasing them got dry and start being slippery in a frightening point.. the wierd thing is that if theres some water on the road they stick like glue but on a rainy day as expected they are not griping at all. So my opinion is to use them only in track with good gravel, with heat warmers and just for 2-3 races and then garbage. Before them i had Diablo rosso II and I was almost dragging knee on highway and braking was great, and in the city they were just good. by the way rosso II lasted 1,5 year and the supercorsas 3,5 years until patterns fade. wierd things :/

Triumph 2019 Speed Triple S (190/70 R17) on mostly country roads for 2,700 spirited miles
Bought my '19 Triumph Speed Triple S with an OEM version of the Pirelli Supercorsas. Dry grip was fine to excellent. Mind you as very high performance street/track tires there is minimal siping making wet weather riding a bit tenuous. Also note that tread depth on a new Supercorsa is roughly half what it would be on an average sport touring tire. In combination with the sticky compound and nearly solid racing slick contact patch when cornering they grip quite well, just not in the wet and especially not on painted road striping!! I was actually surprised to get 2700 miles out of my rear and the front still has prehaps another 800 mi in it, but I was breaking the bike in on the 1st 1200 miles. Estimated mileage for my style of riding for a rear would be 2400 mi and perhaps 3000 out of a front. Will be trying a dual compound sport tire next - ie. Michelin Pilot Powers or perhaps Dunlop RoadSmart 3's

Given 76% while driving a Honda CBR1000RR10 (200/55 R17) on a combination of roads for 9,000 spirited miles
On CBR1000RR 2009 - excellent on dry weather and track use, experience couple of slides in wet condition. the tropic condition in my country makes added to the wear and tear (with frequent track days)nevertheless, the diablo supercorsa sc2 is really worth buying for track hardcore

1000 Mile brake-in, plus 700 Miles of semi-aggressive backroads, 100 Miles aggressive backroads, Tires are toast, showing wire at end of todays ride 1805 on them. Best for 1 or 2 track days would be my best reason to purchase these tires ever again.

Given 87% while driving a Kawasaki ZX10r (180/55 R17 W) on a combination of roads for 6,000 spirited miles
Super Corsa SP's, I have had them on for just over 6,000 miles, my only issue with the tyres are Week 3 I got a nail in there, week 5 they got a tear in and I can see another tear developing.

Other than this amazing tyres to run both track and road. The wear pattern for a litre bike is great, they are not rounded and I had a nice ride on the motorway from London to Belgium and back in a day.

Given 77% while driving a (180/55 R17 R) on mostly country roads for 4,000 spirited miles
The tyre is 100% fit for purpose. Great grip for track/Road use in the dry. The tyre is precise The rear lasted me 4000 miles of spirited riding.

Please, please, please could people stop down rating this tyre for poor performance in the wet. You're not meant to use these tyres in the wet and if you do, you're an idiot.

Likely to not buy again due to the riding I do and do not get the most out of it, as I need something harder wearing and less race focused, so a Diable Rossa 3 for me.

Used on Buell XB9R Firebolt

Given 46% while driving a Triumph Daytona 675 (225/45 R17) on mostly country roads for 600 average miles
Fine in the dry but riding in the rain for the first time these spun out on bitumen patches while cruising 100 kph in a straight line! Has never happened before with sport/tourer choices I usually run. Only 1000 km on a new Daytona 675 but I'll be changing them asap.

Given 74% while driving a Triumph Daytona 675 (225/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 7,000 spirited miles
I've had two sets of these now on my Daytona 675.
On good tarmac they are brilliant, the cliche about cornering on rails was invented for these tyres, on a dry road, with good tarmac.

Unfortunately, for those us in the UK the tarmac has usually been cut up by utility companies, or has dust on them in the summer, or mud from the rain, or water/damp from where it was raining, and in those conditions the tyres can struggle.

So, I'm now going to fit the Diablo Rosso Corsa's, which I hope have some of the Supercorsa's good points without the bad.
