I have just bought a brand new set of Diablo stradas, still in the box. I am running pilot powers currently they grip AWESOME!!! I wanted to get more miles from a set of tires so I went with the stradas. However I am having second thoughts of even mounting them now. What is the major difference I will notice. I know I sacraficed a little grip with the stradas but is it enough for me to notice???? I ride pretty agressive. No track days though. I like to try to push it in the turns I have scraped pegs a couple times. Should I be concerend about this with the stradas??? Please your thoughts and experiences are greatly appreciated. |

Approach the pegs carefully. |

You jumped 2 steps in the tires. You went from dot race, passed stock sport tires, and went to sport touring tires. The Pirelli Diablo line of tires is very good, but you'll want to be careful about how hard you push the stradas. They will have a very different performance envelope. |

I rode the Stradas pretty hard with no problems, just make sure you warm 'em up. I love mine. |

Word. The Strada's are sweet tires, love mine. But I really want a set of Powers next to try them on the Buell, had them on a previous bike and loved 'em. |
