Pirelli Diablo Supersport Tires

Just got an email from Cycle Gear. $190 for a 120/180 combo set if anyone is interested.

How much is shipping?  Do you like these tires and how do they compare with Pilot Powers?

I have my own tire machine so I'm not super concerned about mileage as long as they stick like glue.

My favorite tire! Great feel & stick, just a little short on life.

I think the shipping is free. Depending on which state you live in, there may be sales tax (if they have a store in your state - which they do in GA).

I liked these tires as far as grip and profile. They don't turn in as fast at the PP's, which I like. I think I got about 3k miles out of a rear tire and I went through probably 3 of them. I've switched to Bridgestone BT-023's just for longer life.

It looks like Two Brother Tires in Lawrenceville also has these on sale for $197 so I think I am going to pull the trigger.  I just bought Pilot Powers for my 6th Gen and love them but now my 3rd Gen needs new tires and I'm looking for something a little cheaper especially since I only ride the 3rd gen a few thousand miles per year.  Thanks to both of you boys for your input on these tires.

I have these tires on my daily rider.  Their the only ones I. Have known on my 2002 VFR and they seem great.  They stick nice and even though I personally am not a knee dragger, I would have the confidence in them if I wanted to.

And $190 for both, I would say not a bad price for them.

I've heard good things about the Pirelli Angels. The service manager at my local Honda dealership has them on his 5th generation and told me he really likes them.

$189 for both tires does sound like it a good deal.
