Better mileage tires?

[Yamerhaw]

i think i'll either..

1. keep using Corsa III's, and keep shelling out the cash, cause they stick

2. get some sort of sport/touring tires and slow down(cause i dont think i'll trust them on this bike, it just pulls so HARD out of the corners) even though i'm not on a track..blah blah track blah blah, the roads and the pace we ride sometimes, I just dont think i'd be happy with them

3. race take offs, since i can get like 3 good used sets for the price of a new set of corsa III's(this doesnt sound bad, cause good price and traction!)



BUT i did just find Corsa III's 120/190 set for $285 shipped, not too bad

may just stick with what i know works good for me on this bike, and keep moaning and bitching about buying tires

But, he was asking about milage.

As for them moving around a lot, I'm not a hard rider. The only time I see the edge of my tire is when I'm going too hot into a corner. I just don't like them. Maybe I got the bad tire of the batch?

I don't have those assues with my Corsa III's. However, I am really leaning towards the Road 2's next set. Any group riding I do is with the Baltimore crew from Squidbusters...and it's 60 miles to the rendezvous point. Thats tough on a rear Corsa.

I loved the Corsa III's on my buell, but the wear sucked as you said.
Got Pilot Powers on now, hoping to get 6K out them, yet to be determined.
