just got a set of pirelli diablos and i must say they changed my bike. they stick very well... as for longevity, i don't know. i've only had them on for 500 miles or so.



(yeah baby! my 300th post!)

 

greetings all. i recently purchased a new rear dunlop sport touring tire due to the alleged longer wear. i was skeptical, especially after forking over a couple hundred bucks for the tire and install, but it seems to work well. i have had it on for a month or so and it sticks pretty good. i can't advise on the mileage yet because i haven't had much time to ride a whole lot. overall i am pretty happy with the tire. my buddy has the bridgestone battlax b220 that is similar to the dunlop model i purchased and he said he has no complaints about it either. that's pretty amazing because it seems he likes to complain about everthing.

 

Just put on a Dunlop 208 on a spare rear rim and man do I like it vs the 204's. Looks like the 208 has some pretty good following as far as what is being offered on some of the new sport bikes too.
