Follow this link to the Tyres Section of this site, if you're planning on a new set of tyres before the end of April.

For the freebie you'll have to be able to get to Sheldon Motorcycles near Sollihull, though...

i paid £170 for just the tyers then £10 each for fitting...Done about 1,500 miles on them and now selling the bike :smt013

Think im going to get a se for the TL as well thoguh its got M3's on at the mo and the Corsa III's got up to temp quicker and felt stickier (i know you cant compaire reallly because its to diffrent bikes but still..). Cant belive they have made a better tyer than the corsa III's tbh

From what I can make out, they've done it by copying technology Avon used in the AV55 and AV56's - and when I tried a 56 rear on my VFR is was excellent, so I can't really justify paying another £30 for them even after the cashback.

I don't think I've ever used Pirelli's - apart from on my very first TZR125 and that doesn't really count.

not tried the diablos yet (was going to fit them insted of the Corsa II's) but honestly the Corsa III's are awsome loads of grip even in crapy conditions. I also do 40 mile on the motorway a day and they stay in a nice shape so get 2 thumbs up from me

I bought a part worn one off Ebay a few months ago, but it wouldn't fit the VFR.

I have to say I was a bit dubious about the lack of tread, and would have cacked my whack on a corner anytime it rained. :smt009

So I sold it to my mate who said it was excellent on his Fireblade even in the wet! :smt017

So maybe I'm just a scaredy-cat? oldman
