“I put a set of Pirelli Diablos on my 2002 SV650S in...”

written by Kimosabe on 30/05/2004

Good Points
Rear is sticky.

Bad Points
Front is nervous. Takes a LONG time to scub in.

General Comments
I put a set of Pirelli Diablos on my 2002 SV650S in the stock sizes: 120x60x17 front and 160x60x17 rear. The tires are SUPER slick when new. I had to put about 200 miles on the bike before I could lean it at all. I crashed the bike when the tires were new and did $1,000 plus damage. Now after 300 plus miles, the back grips well, but the front wants to slide out. Not very confidence inspiring. I have tried all kinds of tire pressures and fork adjustments to correct the front problem but have given up and will be replacing them with a set of the stock Metzler ME-Z4s, which were actually better for bike, even though not technically sport tires.
