I've been running these

they're a HUGE improvement over the stock dunslick 20hates... but that's not saying much

I'll give a better impression after September. they're sport touring so I hope to get some decent miles out of them

I just got the Diablos after being a longtime Bridgestone guy and I must say that i like them alot! I quit Pirelli when the first Diablos came out (I was

for the Dragons). I felt they were too "V"d in the front and my bike "fell" into corners. Anyway,I have about 500 miles on them so far and am happy with the grip and the feel provided. Hopefully,mileage won't be a problem.

Yeh sorry,I'm using the "normal" ones. I thought about the Stradas but was concerned about grip and the multi compound tires were more money and not in stock at my dealer. Besides,I got the tires installed for $345 which included a dyno run. Thought I'd checkout the situation since I'd moved from Mi to NC.

I ran my PP's at 28 for the track. They stuck like glue. 37 on the street and you're the golden goose.

32 works for me, but I ride real aggressive for the street. I know a track day will change that though.

I ran them at 36 when I first got the bike. It seems to stiff for me(My forks are non adjustable) so less tire pressure gives me a better ride.
