Pirelli Supercorsa or Bridgestone BT090
I was offered a pretty good deal on both set of tyres and was wondering if the 60€+ for the pirelli were worth it. I liked the bridgestone when i had them but that was on my yamaha dtr... not an everyday driver, although the summer is coming.. thanks in advance. antonio.

Re: Pirelli Supercorsa or Bridgestone BT090
Ive had both and In my opinon the BT090's wore out super quick compared to the supercorsa's so that extra 60 maybe a good investment.
Both tyres are very good and im certainly not fast enough to expoilt the difference between the two but id be picking the supercorsa's.
Its a shame Maxxis dont go down to a 160 in there supersport range, i had these on a superduke and gsxr 750 and there excellent, and i paid £119 a set delivered!!! Bargin if you ask me.

I bought Avon viper supersport in 120/60-17 and 160/60-17 and can't complain. I'm not a track rider but have been out on these in Jan/Feb for fast(ish) road riding and they've not felt vague or lacked grip.
They're currently on a pair offer for £110 at M&P (so I bought some spares)

Re: Pirelli Supercorsa or Bridgestone BT090
those do look good but i have the feeling they either don't ship outside the uk or the postage would just be way too expensive
