How bout bridgestowns s21 or s22 review?
I know boats.
no s21 or s22?
Used to run 16pros and I won't ever go back to them any one rode 21r???
@@hujimwa iim using Battlax S21, for my sport bike, and haven't try S22 yet...
@@suryajun59 what do you think of them and what bike?
The Power RS is one of my favorite tires. I also liked the Metzler Racetech RR K3.
@Chopshop2 M I would say it depends on what and how you ride. From what I understand there road 5 is good for higher mileage. The power rs has good turn in, they were awesome on my 990 super duke. The upgraded version is the power 5. I'm thinking of those for my 1290 super duke.
@Chopshop2 M for the gixxer I'd get the power RS or the new version power 5.
I just got the new Power 5 for my 1290 SD, and they are great.
Racetech RR K3 came standard on my K67 BMW RR. Fantastic durability and great traction.
@@number1SchumacherfanI wanted to get the K3 but it wss spendy. I did have it on my zx10r.
My bike is 2003 Honda RC51.
Honda swing arm psi lable says 42 rear and 36 front max load. With out max load and i am 135 pounds what would be a good range or psi to begin with. How low can psi be before the tire will not preform as intended?
would it be a big difference if i ride on a fresh of diablo iii in the front and supercorsa sp v3 in the rear? The company I ordered from sent the wrong rear tire and I don't want to go through the shipping process again.
No Q3+ or S22? That's what everyone wants to see
I remember having read that the Dunlop TT does not have have silica
What about the diablo rosso 3 in te rain?
Didn't seem to mention multi layers in Road 5 compound.Harder in the middle to prevent flat tops & softer in the sides for more traction. Plse have a drink before videos. Review you video & try to correct faults. Up to date tyre data.
Those roads are always be the leader for a commuter / all rounder imo. Michelin seem to nail wet grip
Why no Bridgestone's? The s21 and now the s22 are very popular among sport bike rider around here.
Q3 or Q4 are not available in europe or have other name??
10000 km out of a DR corsa II set ??
Yea is was wondering that too. Must still have the warmers on…
10 000 km out of rosso corsa 2? Is this some kind of error? Most people get 5000km out of rosso 3 that is harder, sou softer should last less, not 2 times more. On what bike and on what conditions did you get 10 000 km on RC2?
rosso corsa 2 got a good damn milage... pretty amazing! try it milage good and fucking awesome grip.. best tire i ever had.
only bad thing is the moto gp compound on the side of the tyre. dont use it under 5 degrees, it "can" destroy the tyre with small ruptures.
@@manhunni Just got S22s. What milage did you got on RC2, and on what bike and riding?
I get about 10,000km out of the front and about 5,000km out of the rear on my14 triumph street triple r, with pirelli rosso corsa, best tires ever. I am yet to try the new versions, the riding season here in Canada only just started, plan on fitting them this year though.
Im also a fans of rosso 3, yeah thats true i only got 5000km on rosso 3, but when i buy this rosso corsa 2 it blown my mind with mileage over 8000km++ and still go on.. i also use it on track and have a great grip on that side slick compound and im riding my mt09 daily
@@ownerxwheelie I have MT09 2018. I have s22 now, and im fine with them, but maybe next set...i know they will be good (RC2), im just worried about millage
about to get new set. doing track day soon, very helpful video. tossing between rosso corsa and supercorsa v3. gonna get supercorsa v3. had the rosso corsa, very good tyre. just confirming what this dude said. you'll get 10,000 ks out of it. did 2 track days out of it too.
Rosso corsa 2 great had a few set now. Think they have great feedback and grip push me to ride faster. Expensive tho But last longer and probs not much behind the super corsa. Abit like the Michelin car pilot sport 4. 4s and supersports not alot in it imo.
Metzeler Sportec M7RR are a very good compromise in terms of price, grip performance and life...
In Indian road conditions, which are rather challenging, it gives about 10000-11000 km life with excellent side to side switchability during corner carving. It's also usable on track. Compares well with Pirelli Rosso Corsa though I haven't experienced Rosso Corsa-2.
I really like the feel and grip of the Power RS, the softer carcass actually makes for a smoother feeling ride and the black carbon shoulders feel planted when heated up. But i am disappointed that after about 3500 miles on a 600, the rear is almost down to the wear bars, so i estimate about 4000 miles before it "needs" to be changed. The front however, shows very little wear, so i think ill try a set of the Corsa 2's while its still summer here, but i wish there was more info was mileage from a 600 with them. Then for fall and winter, ill toss a set of Dunlop Q3+'s on my bike since they treated me so well through last winter. Edit: I got 4200 miles from a rear on a CBR600RR so the grip at this tire comes at a price, I've got right at 5000 miles on the front and I'm predicting another 1000 miles to the wear bars.
Your results can be down to either significant usage of rear brake or habitual high acceleration or a combination of those... Many of my friends experience a pattern where front lasts 13-14000 km, rear lasts only 8000 km..While for me, same brand tyres (Metzeler M7RR) last about 11000-10500 km at both ends (even wear!)..and our bikes too are same model!
Michelin is the most durable of the sport tires. I just put over 8600 miles on a rear Pilot Power 3 and 12,600 miles on the front. Currently running Power RS with just over 150 miles on it now. Riding mostly canyons, surface streets and some freeway. Occasionally, triple digit speeds on back roads. Kawasaki ZX9R.
Loved my old Pilot Power 2CTs. Great for canyons, tons of grip, last a long time. I’m here because my Bridgestone 003RSs are worn down. Brilliant tire, by the way.
ZX-9R is one of the greatest street bikes ever. Rode a ‘98. What a blast.
How's the Performance & longevity of the Power RS's holding up for u? & Yes, that is def some crazy high mileage! Were the Power 3's or Pilot Road 3's? Either way, that's impressive. I've got Michelins on my Outback & @ >30K miles, they literally still look & handle like new!
For sure another great review! 👏🏻
basically all tires are good. wheres the bad or good better best
These are all top tire manufacturers, there are no bad tires among them.
Just happen to come across your channel and found it very informative, and i will subscribe because I like your honest review and presentation although I found you narrative a little rushed:/
Could I just add I have a 1997 VTR FIRESTORM with a set of Michelin ROAD PILOT 3 and I have been caught in a rain storm with over 3 inches of running water on the road and the bike and tyres worked perfectly, THANK GOD!
The dry road handling has also impressed me in the 1000 miles I have ridden on these.
I will be replacing my current tyres when they are worn out with the latest road pilots because surely the latest incarnations can only get better?
Best of luck with your channel and thank you for your guide, sir.
The supercorsa wont fit on my supermoto. I'm looking for as close to a track tire as possible. Is the rosso corsa 2 more of a track tire than the rosso corsa 3?
Go with the corsa 3,ive for them in my cbr 929, amazing tyre
The Rosso *CORSA'S* are a Street/ Track day tire. The Rosso III's are pretty much just for spirited Street riding. To be honest there are better options for the money tho. Pirelli's supersport tires (including Rosso 3's) just wear faster than most other brands, without providing any additional performance. Ur paying extra for the name. In contrast, their SuperCorsa's have long been one of the best track day tires (its what built there Rep). Dunlop Q4's came out last yr. & raised the game tho, (they're both DOT legal, Race tires). ALso, if sum1 gets 10K Km from a Rosso-Corsa Rr., they''ve def got it installed on a F***ing bicycle, maybe an E-Bike... My friend got a puncture in his Power RS Rr. last May, shop replaced w RC II's they had in stock & Rr. was worn-out in Sept. w just over 2K miles on FZ-09. From day 1 he said he couldn't wait to go back to the RS's & he did.
Here's what I & guys I ride w a lot have ridden & would reco. I Had Rosso 3's for 2.5K, then upgraded to Q3+'s. More nimble, more feedback & more precise @ holding a line + Rr. doesn't slip when accelerating out of fast corners like R3's would. I only got 3200 mi & 1 track day on Q3+ Rr.w Z900, but replaced w same Q3+. Front should last me 2 Rrs. *Many riders avg. 5-6K on Q3+ Rr's*, I always ride hard. S22's r solid All-Round also, more neutral but good performance. Longevity, Idk. They're on friends R6 & big upgrade to the S20 Evo's.
Personally, I'd Reco 1. Q3+ for best performance. 2. S22's / Michelin RS's or GP's for maybe a few extra miles/ wet grip. Or if u just want a steal on some good rubber, the orig. Conti Sport Attacks are On Sale 4 like half price @ cycegear or RevZ Now! Either way, Don't wait. Prices are going up & sizes are selling out (C-Vid). Hope that helps. I'spent a ton of time researching, watching reviews, reading forums & discussing w other riders all 3X (too much 2BH). Q3+'s seemed 2b reco'd by any1 & every1 who'd tried em. Now I'm 1 of them too. Any ?'s, Lmk ✌ Btw, IME when it comes to things like Hi-Perf SS Tires or oem suspension vs Ohlins etc. It's hard to fully understand or articulate in words exactly how much better something can be, until u actually have a chance to experience the differences for urself & compare them
@@bigb27me thanks for all the great info!
Road 5 or RS?
Road 5
Road 5 but u won't get 10k like he mentioned it will last 3-4 k that's all
@@1minamv389 .I had the Road 5 last year on my S1000XR, to my great surprise I was able to ride 8000km... and you can rest assured that I know the throttle very well .. last 1000km very much shatter in front..
Why Diablo Rosso 2 and not 3?
And where is the better Diablo Rosso Corsa 2?
kevo82 Rosso Corsa 2 is a more sporty tire. Different line from the Rosso 3
Matt Caldarella My bad...I misunderstood that you were talking about the Diablo Rosso 2, and not the Corsa 2
I have the Corsa 2 on my KTM 790 and it’s very good.
Would you recommend the Supercorsa instead, or Corsa 2 is better if I never go on track?
Corsa 2 is more road/track but still a sports tyre. Personally I use Rossi corsa 2. Really good SP you will get like 2km corsa 2 you will get more like 5k
Well sorry but Road 5 too expensive. Conti roadattack3 or bridgestone t31 for commuting, dunlop q3+ or pirelli for track (and never for mileage), Michelin and Metzeler 01 if you are rich and ride in cold temperature (less than 25celsius)
Meh.... no M7rr and 10K out supersport tires? Idk, don’t really trust this guy...
True 🤣🤣🤣 he's a joke
Yea alot of people saying s21r is decent. I don't want to risk a shit ride. Totally agree Michelin are reliable and are usually best for all round. Metzeler track tech I think almost par the Rossi corsa . Better for wet the Rossi corsa 2 has it for me in the dry. I actually use these now. Against the supercorsa there better value and range. Also the Rossi corsa 2 I had the oil piss all over the rear wheel and I managed to not come off 🤷🏻♂️
Forgot the metzeler m7rr
M7RR it is an excellent tire. If they put it in the comparative test, they did not have any material: it was Metzeler and the rest :) last year I had 13.000 km in optimal conditions with them on a naked (Z750). This year I try Dunlop SS TT, because the insistence of the service guy and curiosity. Return the feedback in november. All best everyone and have fun on dry roads :)
I ride dry weekends on ZX10R and use metzeler K3. It is very good
I have M7rr on my Sprint ST 1050, sweeeeeet! They are almost done now, after 6000Km, but both my bike and I are heavy and the engine is very torquey. I’m in doubt now: refit a new set of M7rr or try the new RossoCorsa2?
Lasergun what only 6k? Mine lasted 11k and I have a torqy bike as well. Is your tire pressure low?
Scandi MC no, I run with recommended pressure. The fact is that both my bike and I are quite heavy, and I ride it almost only in the twisties at a “happy” pace, with quite sharp throttle/brake action. I’m sure that with a quieter riding style and a bit of commuting they would last 10K easy.
why there is illegal tyre
How many KMs on Rosso Corsa 2??
depends how you ride
I managed 4000 km, often driving aggressively. there was still some rubber and i could have squeezed another 1000 km
but performances started to noticeably drop after 3500km. at that point grip became no better than an tour tyre. so i would say Pirelli confirms its reputation: lots of grip.. not lasting for long
How many km you can get on a pirelli SP V3? Thankss
try 1700 km until I hit the wear bars
I have 6000 km on the back tire of my 16 Hyper SP. It the stock tire and had 4000 km already when I bought the bike. No track days on it and no burnouts
@@45south you tacking your bike? I prefer the corsa 2
Michelin power rs 10000k? You must be joking!
cristian821987 I totally agree with you . This guys a babbling fool
Well, I've seen at least two other reviewers mentioning 10K, or 10.000 KM for the sake of clarity. It doesn't matter if it's actually that much, it's just an indication that the RS will last longer than a Pirelli.
3000 miles is more like it.
Any track tyre lasting 10ks. I don't think so.
3000 is the max for that tyre... except if you drive a 300cc motorcycle
Nice review. Currently running Sportsmart TT. Done 1 track day and 3500 kms. Rear tyre is completely shot. Good grip but now I am wondering to keep TT or to move to Bridgestone S22 or Metzeler Racetec RR k3
Anybody else here who thinks that Michelin is not as goog tyre as presented?
And where is Bridgestone S22?
New bridgestones are trash there are vids showing them falling apart after 800 miles only tire that should be here is the Dunlop q3+
@@angelochiaraluna6801 What other vids? There's one vid on youtube about S22 failure which frankly could just be a lone issue.
@@TheGarnerjustin73 I got 500km on my S22 120/180. Nothing bad on tyres, and i watched and commented video. I dont know if that is lone issue, but i know i dont have that tearing, and i ride much much more agresively than that guy. No chicken strips on shitty roads and 13°C, with 2.5 and 2.9 bar
Sony Bibac How do they compare to Dunlop Q3+, Michelin Power RS or the Pirelli Diablo Rosso Corsa II's? But I think the Dunlop Q3+'s are only available in USA unless you pay a ton on shipping.
@@angelochiaraluna6801 Nonsense, almost every reviewer highly praises the S22.
“Barely legal tire” dude honestly who gives a shit about if it’s legal on the street or not
In Europe where he is from, cops can ticket/impound your vehicle for not being street legal. Including tires, lights, exhaust, power output (yes power out)etc. Cops have portable dynos where they can test your bike's power to see if it is within its license class. They got tier license system and tier bike power out put there where you are not allowed to ride a bike that is more power then you are license. Technically it is true for the US too, we call it a fix it ticket, for tires, lights, basically road safety related. Some states have a yearly vehicle inspection that checks for these things.
DaBinChe yeah i know that, but i mean, why stop for cops? You just don’t do it:) also don’t put a license plate on your bike, that’s how you deal with that shit
@@IkerBoulala yes run every second day if police sees me definitely funny........
Brevaz that’s how I do it tho, I don’t daily use my bike so I don’t care at all
@@DaBinChe lol where the hell does that happen? i live in europe, first time hear such BS
Dunlap Q4, best for mountains.
BattleAx S22
Somebody get this guy some water!
Gasping for water. Might help prevent umm,erh whatever.
Good 👍
If u do more than a 1000 miles on this type of tire. U don’t need them 😉
Where're you from bro? You don't seem comfortable with english language
For my ninja190cv s21 is total.....but 4000km and i hope only 500km plus in rear tyre... front tyre y thing is in the Middle 8000..10000 km in my hands I hope.... i live in Southeast Spain and my bike use 200.50 rear.... i only can buy Avon ..... this 200.50 don.t appear in the Last perforance tyres michelin or dunlop, bridgestone. .pirelli....and more..... PLEASE INFORMACIÓN ABOUT AVON FOR ROAD FAST DRIVE.... GOOD VIDEO ... I CAN.T USE S21 OR MICHELIN BECAUSE TÉCNICAL INSPECCIÓN HERE ONLY PASS 200.50 AND ONLY .... Y USED 200.55.... ITS GOOD BAD NOT SO GOOD IN ROAD FOR MY ....,CORNER SO FAST FOR ROAD DRIVING. .... PLEASE INFORMACIÓN FROM AVON ON YOUR HYPERBIKE
the edges of the rosso corsa 2 have the same compound as the supercorsa
Last about twice as long aswell. I'd pick the Rosso2
This review is stupid. Every tire is his favorite tire.
I'll never get Pirelli again. I ride my 959 like a dirt bike, lock up the back tire at lights. Constant wheelies. Pirelli leaves rubber on the road like crazy, I get 2k out of them. The M7rr I have on all my bikes.
Maybe you need dirtbike tires
Sp don't last long at all tho. M7rr are decent tyres
What about S22 which are batter than Power rs? Bullshit + dislike
