Don't shoot me! Better yet, if you're going to post a gripe about how many tire threads there have been, do me a favor and don't. :evil:

I KNOW there have been a lot of tire posts. It's a sportbike forum, what else are we going to talk about? Coffee? Exhaust pipes? :wink:

Anyway, I know that Pirelli had a buy-one-get-one-free deal recently on the Corsa 3. I missed out on it, but I'm seriously considering getting a set, and I figure that somebody must have gotten some, ridden them for a while, and probably has an opinion of them.
I did a forum search, and couldn't really find anything other than talk about the aforementioned deal.
So, how do you like them? (or, can you point me to a thread that already exists?)

Other Motorcycle: Down to one....for now
I got in on the Pirelli deal & so far, the tyres are handling great. Quick warm-up & very stable in the corners.

Just got mine mounted and was out playing last night. Scuffing them in slow to avoid the mold release go downs that are so popular w/ new shoes. So far seems very stable though. More linear feel to the tip in than the BT010's had.

Rode the bike to school last night and when I got out, it was raining. As a result, I got a chance to try them out for rain performance. WOW! The bike felt so much more stable than it did w/ the BT010's in the rain. I wasn't trying to wring it out as it was dark out, and the city streets in Dayton pretty much suck (paver bricks are often smoother than the roads downtown) and I'm still getting used to the new feel w/ these tires, but it was so stable, if it weren't for getting drenched by the road spray, I would have sworn the road was dry.
