| Zone Head Joined: Dec 2006 From: Richland I Ride: Anything that "Returns the Favor" | What is the difference between these Supercorsa's OK I was going to order a new 190 SC 2 what the heck is the difference between these 2 tires besides $50  This one they call Dragon SC http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com...Rear-Tire.aspx And this one they call diablo SC http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com...Rear-Tire.aspx They are both availible in Sc-2 compound so what is the difference? I think the front I have now is a Dragon Supercorsa sc-2 I will have to go look. |

Lee Milwaukie, OR Best Track & Street tire I have used Put this on my new 07 Honda CBR600RR and rode a track day. I have to say it's the best street/track tire I have ever ridden on. The grip was fantastic and I never felt the tire slip or do anything funny even coming out of corners with the power down. Each time I went out I felt more and more comfortable getting the bike over and not worrying about the tires. I usually ride the 2CT's but these are better. Not sure about mileage but I would guess about 3000 or 4000 miles, depending on how many track days you do. |

| Washington (VA)  Joined: Dec 2008 From: Spokane Valley, WA I Ride: a Triumph, and whatever else they'll let me test ride. | I have the Dragon's on my S3 right now, and have been very pleased with the grip. I've noticed that the tires take much longer to warm up now after 3500 miles or so, but there is still quite a bit of tread left. Not great in the rain. Diablos are the newer version of these tires, and as far as I know they are the same compound with a different tread pattern. Dragons are discontinued, which explains the difference in price. |
