So, I am getting ready for another set of tires on my Firebolt. I don't do any track days, all of my riding is on the street. It occurs to me that I am not using all the "performance" available in the Diablos, so I am wondering if I might be better off going with the Diablo Strada instead of the Rosso.
I have no complaints with the handling, so I don't want to change the profile. I got 6500 miles out of my first set, and I am now at 5500 on this set. I don't want to change the way the bike handles, but if the Stradas handle as well on the street (and the only advantage is on the track), and will get better mileage...

thoughts from anyone that has tried both?

Take a look in the Quick Board for a hell of a deal on the Diablo T's. I think 170.00 a set? Posted around 5-6-08.

I'm on my 2nd set of strada's. The rear lasted 8,000 miles, and the front went 14,000 miles. Just replaced the front yesterday (7-14) with another strada.
I've got a xb12s.
I love these tires! they have great handling.
