So yesterday I picked a round and black set of Pirelli's for my '97 Triumph t595. They are the new Diablo SuperCorsa's, a 190/55/17 SC3(hard) for the rear and a 120/70/17 SC2 (medium) for the front. I've usually run the Dragon SuperCorsa's until now, but these should be fairly similar. The only thing of difference I can find in the press blurb is the fact that the front tyre has a 'sharper' profile for quicker steering. (different tread pattern too)
I had a pair of Dunlop D207GP's a few years ago with a very pointy front tyre that made the handling very nervous, and too keen to shake its head at higher speed. The bike used to fall into corners too quickly compared to the Pirelli's I later used. I'm hoping the new Diablo's don't display the same characteristics as the old Dunlops.
Ah yes.. I also picked up a battery (Yuasa YB14LA2), renewed the rego and got a warrant attached. $850ish spent.
