    RTFA... Read The Fucking Article... Here is the caption for that photograph.

    "While our bike is well suspended, the footpegs are set in the lower, forward position. Lean angles were enough to scrape the shift lever and in the last session, bend back the brake pedal. That speaks well of the Rossos."

    Re: New street tire from Pirelli

    I was uber impressed with the Diablo Corsa III's that came on the Hypermotard S's, so I guess this tyre will be more of the same.

    Corse III's had way more traction than the Hyper had ground clearance. I just couldn't get those babies to slide all that much. Compared to the B-stones that come on the base model Hypers (which were like riding on ice) the Corse III's were glluuuuueee.

    Re: New street tire from Pirelli

    Where do these tires fall in the Pirelli line? Are they an addition, or a replacement for something?

    I was planning to grab a set of corsa III's over the winter since my current shoes are completely ripped to shreds.
