Average Customer Rating:  5.0 out of 5 (based on 7 ratings)
- The new concept tire from Pirelli is called the Diablo Rosso. Instead of using multi-compounds, they use what is called EPT (Enhanced Patch Technology) to ensure a better grip and better performance on the road.
- Based on their leading experience in the motorcycle racing world, they produced this tire for the street legal (super)sports motorcycles. Sports motorcycles have been increasing their power and torque over the last decade, and the tires need to follow this trend. Current tires are limited, hence the reason Pirelli came out with a new concept.
- The structure design is aimed to maximize - at every lean angle and every speed - the contact patch; in terms of area, shape and pressure. This combination supports the tread to reach an unbeatable level of grip and stability. The tire structure has been designed in order to get the set synchronized into balanced behavior, with the 2 tires perfectly matched in dynamic use.
- The patented Zero Degrees steel belt below the tread keeps the tires in the most suitable shape at all times and yet provides enough elasticity for a very progressive feedback and behavior in lean, allied to unbeatable bump absorption. With the support of the compound the zero degrees steel belt also guarantees huge braking stability.

| Amazing tires |
By Nate from Honolulu, HI
Pros: Amazing tires, complete change in handling from all other tires I've used. My confidence level after installing the Pirelli Diablo Rosso's has gone through the roof, the feedback from my inputs can be felt ten times better than any other tire I've used, and when I lean the bike I can't help but want to lean it even further than neccessary, that's how confident inspiring these tires are.
I don't even think these tires need to be scuffed, maybe 20-30 miles of smooth riding and they're ready for aggressive riding.
Cons: I can't think of any.
The day I put these on I could tell they were tires in a class of their own, I can't even describe the feel of the road with these tires. Prior to these tires I felt like I could only control the bike by leaning and small inputs from the handle bars, now I feel like I have more control, I can lean the bike and put further input through the handle bars to adjust lean in or counter steer.
The first weekend I had these on I got stuck on the north side of Oahu in the rain, after 7 hours of riding in the rain, I have no concerns about these tires doing their job.
