I did a search earlier on the Bridgestone website earlier, the product is the there - but in French !!

The gist seems to be they are produced for the super moto brigade, but some of the sizes will suit us.

"Well i got me some diablos for testin at cads this weekend......i needed something and the word was just a maybe it would be p******..."

Diablo's came fitted to my Monster, mmm....

First time out, new tyres, rear slid out on a roundabout at sensible speeds.

Second time out, ditto.

Neither were dangerous and it felt "controlled"

Now I know they were new, I know I wasn't putting lots of heat into them and I know it was cold, but I was surprised.

I may be wrong but I think Diablo's take a while to warm up/scrub in and if they do then surely thats not what we need, even if they are great once warmed up?

Great thats instilled alot of confidence for me this sat....
