Just put a set on my R - I usually go with the Pirelli Diablo Stradas, but I was told these are the replacement - cool looking tires, good reviews online, I couldn't really get on it without them slipping since it's 30 degrees outside. I got about 2750 out of the rear Corsa III they claim 7500 out of this rear, we will see....

I have heard nothing but good about the Angels, but they are still pretty new so not many have tried them. There were the OEM tire on the 2010 XB12XT. I am still working on my Strada's on my XB, 12k and still plenty of life. I would be pissed if I got less than the 7000 mile I got out of a Corsa 3.

Eh, Corsa IIIs do not like the cold which made my riding time rare in the winter on the R, the Stradas on my CR are doing good, I think I got 7k on my last Strada rear, I like to twist the wrist and go, lot of power wheelies and I go as fast as I can to the next corner when I am out riding for fun - so that plus commuting kills my center tread - not enough twisties around here but I make do

I need a rear and I'll snab an Angel and see what I think. Sounds too good to be true.

I did get 5000 out of my OEM Corsa's until the cords exposed. Got 1/2" chicky strips and generally rode the bike like a crazy man, all HWY.

I've been looking at the ST's and the Michelin 2CT's for a little extra wear time. I don't really need the extra tread of the ST's but they sure look like they have more rubber in the center over the Corsa's. Tough decision.
