now I'm confused  :-

Go for the Pirelli Diablo Strada :)

too expensive ... not in stock

Was on Diablo's. Now changed to Michelin Pilot Power on the front and Pilot Road 2 on the rear. Super smooth, great turn in(hence the fast heating Pilot Power on the front), doesn't let go even on the hardest high speeed leans. I'm hooked. Diablo's scared the s#!t out of me!

I've gone with a Metzeler M1 .. slightly harder than the M3, but softer than the Z6

and got lower profile too .. gone for a 60 instead of a 70 .. they quicker turn in .. we'll see
