I am getting ready to ride down to Daytona Beach for the Black College Reunion at the end of the month and I need some advice on what tires to purchase for the trip. Me and the Dunlops are separating due to irreconcilable differences and I'm now looking for a new love. I'm on the Motorcycle Superstore Web site now and they have the Pirelli Diablo Corsas and the have the Scorpions. I also see the Stradas. The Stradas are cheapest, but which is best?

for distance riding, probably the stradas they also have a deal right now where you buy the rear and get the front for free.
The corsas are a sticky sport tire , and the sync is a good compromise of the tires you listed.

Does that help?

I've been very happy with the Scorpions on my XB9S. Good mileage and good grip.

I love my Scorpions. One good ride on the interstate and the stock Dunlops were covered with little sticky rubber balls...cornering is better with the Scorps, too.

Good luck,
Bill

I just traded my city cross for a 12s, and I'm going to get scorpions for the 12, i don't like those dunlops at all...completely better feel with the scorpions.
