I'm using the BT-016s right now...the jury is still out-I REALLY liked my Pirellis!

The fast turn/tip in that everyone loves with them on a Jap bike = super twitchyness on a Buell for the first miles. (at least on the 1125)
I like the Corsa's...and they are wearing pretty nicely. But I loved the Pilot Powers. So I figure I'll run a set and see whats what.

The XB might even have sharper geometry than the 1125. Not sure on that.

yeah the corsa IIIs are lovely, I tried the PP 2CTs and to be honest I prefer the regular PPs to them.

Sport rider gave the 2cts the highest ranking out of the different brands they tested, over the dcIII, bt-016, contisport attack and a few others. The test was based around tires that can be used street and track.
