Anyone heard of um? Or used um?

I've just got my bike and thats whats on the back, an Avon Viper Sport Tyre.
I just wondered how good they were?

Got a Pirelli Dragon Supercorsa on the front. Theyr good them arent they?

never used avon tyres.

The pirelli's i have used and they are fantastic. The only thing i'd say is when you come to replace the front use a 120/60 profile instead of the 120/70 that'll be on it. I believe they only made the dragons in a 70

should be 120/60 anyway, its only if someone has stuck a 120/70 on it you may need to change it back, but you may also have to adjust the forks through the yokes to get it all the right height again.

I have them on my ZXR and they work a bloody treat for me! I prefer them over the 090's.

I thought they only made supercorsa's in 70 profile aswell :smt017
Sure it's not a Dragon Evo? (similar tread pattern)

Is this not it? this is a 60 supercorsa, which looks very similar to mine, i cant find many listed specifically as 'dragon'
