Re: The NC30 & 35 tyre thread

So - this old chestnut again.
For information I have an NC35 and live in the North of England, where it is cold and often damp. Today was hot. It read 19C in my car.
I currently use BT090s on my NC35 - they grip like snot to a blanket but don't last long (2000Km on my latest rear tyre - all "progressive" road riding - no track). Also it seems that they are now more expensive than more modern tyres.
I'm happy to keep buying the BT090 but if other tyres would work it might be cheaper - especially if they last longer!
I am using Pirelli Diablo Rosso III on my MV Agusta and I like how they feel and grip - but would they work on the NC35? Would they get warm enough - they are all Z rated and a higher weight rating as well. They do Diablo Rosso II in the right weight and speed rating - but I still hear that people struggle to get these to temperature....
Do we keep having the same discussion and still stick with the BT090s.... still...thoughts on the Pirellis anyone?
