So I had the Diablo Stradas put on my bike, and here is my impressions after 200 or so miles of scrubbing in. I can not describe how much better they are over the OEM Dunlops!! Of course right after I put them on and thoroughly clean my bike, I get caught in a downpour. They handle the rain very well, much better than the OEM Dunlops. The Dunlops always had a greasy feeling, they never let go, but I never really trusted them, even after they were hot. Steering feedback is much better also, you have a pretty good idea of what the contact patches are doing at all times. The Stradas also have a better ride, more compliance on the bumps. I have never had Pirelli MC tires before, I have always been a Bridgestone guy, and I can say that so far, they are very impressive tires. Two thumbs up!:thumbup::thumbup:
