Hey Guys,
Prepping up for my first track day at Laguna Seca (yes, I am very excited). The tire vendor there is a Dunlop vendor, and I'm thinking of throwing some DOT "slicks" on (I forget the model), or some race slicks.
Some questions:
1) I have Supercorsa SP's on the bike with maybe...
If anyone needs tires, I just saw this available from Riders Discount and just ordered myself a set.
$329 shipped inside the US for a Set of 120/200 tires. There's also a $40 mail in rebate available from buying these as well bringing these down to $289...
I just want to know how others are doing with the wear on the stock Pirelli tires? I love the grip in the canyons but I am tearing through these tires at a cyclic rate. I go through a front in 1300-1500 miles and a rear in about 3000 miles.
I am wearing the sides of the tires to the wear...
Just went to order another set of tyres for the pani and apparently they only make them in a 200/60 17 instead of the 55 now. Anyone tried the new size and notice any difference?
Gents its time for a tyre change for me.
I must admit have only used the stock SP tyres up to now. Was thinking about getting the SC. Primary use on the street but like to get on the track as well.
Any feedback appreciated from those that have used them on the street.
thanks
Crazy profile on these tires. I was doing some cornering and knee dragging on these and still have a small chicken strip. Felt like I had a decent lean angle too. One cheek off. Knee touching good. On the 600 the tire would be all used up. Feel like im not even close to the lean angles this bike...
Time for a tyre change, i like the standard Supercorsa, when the weather is warm (15C +) but i often get caught in the rain. Supercorsa's are not so great in wet.
I was thinking about the Rossa Corsa, has anyone fitted them and what to do think of them. 200/55 so no changes to DTC.
2013...
Hey all,
I have a set of brand new Pirelli Supercorsa SP V2 for sale (OEM fitment - 120/70 front, 200/55 rear). Initially purchased this as a backup set a few months ago, but decided I will be going to DOTs the next time around.
$420 takes the set. Local pickup only (Orange County)...
Have done 3400km's on my oem tyres which are the sc1 compound i believe. Looking at new tyres today and have come across the sc2 which is supposed to be a little harder. Has anyone changed compounds on there 1199 and noticed any major changes on the wear rates, not overly keen on the sc1's again...

Some time back I noticed an odd blank insert on the tyre wall of the Pirelli Diablo SuperCorsas on the 1199 Panigale and later on the Pirelli Diablo Rosso II tyres.
After some further investigation, I found that Pirelli offers a feature to custom design tyre labels. You can have flags and...
Going from the stock 200/ 55 to the higher profile 60 series changes the diameter. Does anyone know how this will effect my Tri in the TC etc?
Has anyone tried it?
( this is a dot racing tire from pirelli)
I am thinking of riding my 1199 to Austin for the Moto GP in April and was wondering if anyone has tried more of a general sport tire on their bike yet. Texas is flat and I'd hate to waste a set of SPs, which would square off before I even got there.
Anybody mount a set of Pirelli Diablo Rosso...
Hey guys,
I have been looking for new tires for my panigale. In the recent track day i managed to completely destroy my suporcorsas, lasting only 1200 miles (1100 street and 100 track). I am interested in track tires that will last longer. I read really good things about the superbike pros...
