So I've gone through 2 sets of M7RR's on my GSX-R K6, and while they are very capable tyres, for some reason I'm just not getting that 100% confidence feeling I used to get on PR3's.

The bike will need a fresh set of rubbers in the new year, so I'm starting to look at my options now.

I ride pretty much all year round, mostly commuting with the added weekend blasts, European tours and the occasional track day.

Has anyone had long term experience with the Pirelli Diablo Rosso 3?

Alternatively, have you any other recommendations?

I have just got one fitted to the front on the MT09. I will let you know in a month.

I've always liked Pirellis, and I've not found a tyre of theirs I didn't like. I've had Supercorsas, Corsas and Rosso Corsas. I think I have Rosso Corsas on my Street Triple and CBR.

I've got them fitted to my Daytona 675. I get on with them pretty well, the rear did ~4k with a couple of (slow) trackdays, far better grip in the wet/cold than the dunslip qualifiers that were fitted when I bought it.

Thumbs Up

Whereas I’ve never had a set of Pirelli’s, but I’ve always heard good things about them. Having said that, the rave reviews are normally on the track focused tyres, and not all year round ones.

Sounds promising!
