Has anyone tried these?

I`ve just been talked into a pair and i`m a bit undecided, I`ve just had a pair of batalax 016 and liked them alot. I`ve checked the pressures and all good, they seem unstable through tight and medium corners,
anyone?

i have them on my bike and i think they're awesome tyres, plenty of grip both on the dry and in the wet.

i have a diablo corsa on the front and a diablo strada on the rear, can't say enough good things about them.

They are good tyres do not however think about the pirelli dragons unless you live somewhere where it never rains.

I had diablo's then diablo rossi's now have dragon super corsa's and I agree with Jacktar the dragon's are great for hot days and lots of corners but get a cool day and they are skittish my diablo rear got a rock through it with about 1500 k's on it so pitched it then the diablo rossi got glass through it at about 2000 k's so threw it too but other than that they were awesome tyres stick like shit to a blanket
