Originally I had Diablo Strada's which lasted 9000 miles. I wanted the same again, but they were unavailable so the fitter recommended the Diablo's. I was hesitant, but once scrubbed in, I never looked back. The front is planted, the rear is grippy. I've used them on twisty back roads, motorway and track. I can't fault them except for squaring off after only a couple of thousand miles.

I totally disagree with the other reveiw of these & i have the same bike. They have awesome grip in both the wet & dry. Get some heat in them & you can be very agressive in the wet with the throttle & it's not hard to get them hot they heat up very quickly. In the dry they just seem to have limitless grip. They are very stable at high speed & turn in & mid turn, you can get on the throttle ridiculously early.
They stear slightly slower than other sports tyres which makes them perfect for the road. You get very fue tank slappers & you have to be doing something realy silly to get one
But they wear very quickly i only got 600 Miles out of the rear tyre before it was very worn out.
I don't do track days or stunting, just fast road

just fitted these to my 2004 zx6r and there brilliant. first ride was in pouring rain and they felt really grippy even though they werent scrubbed in. then i took them out on a fast road ride in the dry and got to the edge of the tyre almost immediately and able to put plenty of power down leant over. these tyres just dont need scrubbing in!. if i done that with the avons i would have been off.

Great tyre for everyday use. I've done 3 track days + commuting and it is still good. Well balance grip on dry and wet conditions. Allow great lean angles and quick stearing. Good stuff !

These tyres are just the job in the dry if you like to give the throttle a good twist. Be a lot more careful in the wet though as they don't seem to warm up very well which can cause the back end to step out unexpectedly. Wear of the tyre is as good as i've seen in tyres with 2000 miles done, loads of treat left, great feedback from the road, although i'm having to replace my rear tyre today as it's got a large screw deep into the cut out tread. Not used them on the track so won't comment. Overall, a good tyre for the money but requires care in the wet.
