Re: which tyres
depends wether you liked the strada's really..
im guessing its not really for scratching on, but scrubbed super corsa's would be cheap and raise a few eyebrows when parked up lol

Re: which tyres
always sworn by pirellis and the tyre place put the strada on to match the dragon gts on the front which i believe they don't do anymore, front has been on there all the time i've had the bike (nearly 5 years) no problems with the strada but people have commented they are a hard tyre, as long as they grip in all weathers i dont mind what it is.

Re: which tyres
I now swear by Avon Vipers, ive always had the viper sports tho, but damn they good in wet or dry! Thing is with rubber, its an individual preference.

Re: which tyres
Try a set of Corsa III's i commute on mine and love them loads more grip than i can use, not to expensive to buy and the rear has done about 2.3k on the rear of my TL (gets some abuse..) and had a fair few hundred miles left on it.
Got them on the ZXR as well and worked a treat on that
