I need to buy new tyres for my 916 and I was thinking of Pirelli Diablo or Dunlop 208
Has anyone used these, your thoughts or ideas.......:o
Thanks:devil:

Can't fault my Diablo so far, but need some warmer weather and cleaner roads to push it a lot harder to see how good it really is.

Dunlop are just about to release the new 208RR. If it's even better than the 207RR, then you won't go far wrong!

Funny, my 916 had 207rr's on when i got it and i just couldnt live with them. Slung them and put 010's on (just sold a blade with them on)
well after 6000 miles the rear is shot, front has plenty left but has worn one side off. I will be replacing with 012's next and give them a bash.
Must admit i like the feel Bridgestones give me, got them on my NC30, TZR250R and retard wheels fitted to the CRM250AR.
all down to personal preference but i aint no hero on the road (cant even get me knee down on the 916) but the 010's feel great from cold and are quite predictable.
207's just squirmed from cold, and when warm felt very unstable.

Diablos everytime

You don't need the Corse's on the road IMHO only if you're inter or fast on the track

You'll love them!!!!
