I have done 2500 miles now on my original Pirelli Diablo Corsa rear and it is now due for replacement.

The tyre has never let me down, seems super sticky and I think 2500 miles is quite good for a rear ?

I was going to replace like for like as the front tyre is still mint but a local shop had some Pirelli supercorsas that he recommended ( Do not know which ones he had ) and also the same type Michelin that is fitted to the 999R.

Mate,if you are happy with the Corsa's stick with 'em. (no pun intended!)
If you fancy a change,I can recommend Michy Pilot Powers.Very similar feel to the Diab's and 3k to a rear.Not the cheapest tyres,but hey,Dukes are not the cheapest bikes!
