I changed from the Pirellis to the Bridgeys and wouldnt change back ... nothing ultimatetly wrong with the pirellis, no "moments" to report, just prefer the feel of the 012ss's ...
A fair number of our customers have gone the other way from 012ss to Diablo Corsas and either found them an improvment or equivelent to the Bridgestones, may also be down to media hype and the fact the Pirellis are a tad cheaper.
Also getting excellent feed back on their wet weather capabilities.
Ok guys I read your threads with interest and it seems I should try the BT-12SS I have only ever run Michelins on the Duke not had any problems with them. Used Dunlops on most of the Jap bikes I have had over the years but never got more than 2k out of a rear.
