Think I'm pretty sick of them..

Yah they are great if you're at the track but I can't wait to wear out my Diablo Corsas and go back to something with a "round" front tire profile.

It always feels off/on when I ride at sane street speeds and basically makes the bike feel less stable.

The new Diablo Rossos are supposed to have a more "linear response" according to the March Sport Rider article.

"Pirelli feels that the intended market for the Diablo Rosso -riders who mostly ride on the street- doesn't want a tire that steers too quickly."

Or you could always go with Pilot Powers. Seems to be nothing but praise for 'em.

I use the Pilot Powers myself. They ride great. I would definitely recommend.

i coulda sworn pilot powers have a V profile. am i wrong??

Yeah, PP's are the most triangular V shape tire I've seen. I liked them on my 636 tho.

Metzlers wer always nice and neutral, but I think they are Pirelli's now. You'll have to go away from premium SS tires to get anything with a round profile these days. Don't really need it on the VFR anyway, so no loss.

I think I want to go back to S-T tires anyway.

My bike came with S-T tires with a nice round profile in the first place, and I think it just rides better with them.

Pilot Road II's or Conti Road attacks.
this VFR guy seems to like 'em

I'm not going to read all of the threads - -i have Pilot Powers on my street bike and definitely not triangular, my Power Race on my r6 is a completely different animal though.
