In need of a 190 Pilot Power


While lubing the chain this morning I discovered a cut in the rubber of my rear tire that goes down to the cords. It's holding air at the moment but it doesn't give me the warm and fuzzies.

If anyone has a 190 Pilot Power that they are willing to sell, I'm all ears. I would like to be able to pick it up on Friday or early Saturday because I have to get it mounted for a ride on Sunday.

I'm fine with new or used. I just want the tire to last through the end of the season because I plan on switching to the 190/55 2CT when it finally becomes available.

My usual supplier can not guarantee that the tire will be to my door by Friday unless I ship it by air which bumps the cost up to $69 for shipping.

I think I have one at home with a ton of tread on it.

I'll check this evening. Send me a PM this evening to remind me.

I have one. It's not as good as I thought though. It's pretty much down to the wear mark. probably a few hundred miles in it, but not much more.

Yours if you want it.

Now that sounds like a good deal to me! I'm traveling for work tomorrow so I'll have to coordinate the details late tomorrow or some time Thursday.

Are you doing a 190-180 swap? The OEM tire on my bike was a 200. I replaced it with a 180 and the bike felt a hell of a lot lighter. Only problem is it felt like it was falling into corners. The 190 ended up having the best profile in my case (6" rim).

You will like the diablos. I've run a few sets of Corsas on the 12R with great results.

Just noticed you are in NH....I'm gonna be in loudon on wensday if you wanted to swing by and get'em than.

I'm bringing my R1 to the track and while I wanted to get 190/55 didnt have enough $$$ so throwing on 180/55 instead. I hope to get some riding done before going to the track to get used to the 'falling into turns' feeling

Had diablo corsa III on a previous bike (600rr) and I loved them! So I'm giving the reg diablo corsa a try on my R6 & R1, hoping they stick just as good as the corsa III
