First post for me. For all the motorcyclists out there whos looking for a set of tires. Cyclegear has Pirelli Diablos in 3 sized sets on sale for 159.99 and 169.99 10$ shipping for oversized and tax. Still way better than a set going for $220-250

120/60-17 Front + 160/60-17 Rear

120/70-17 Front + 180/55-17 Rear

120/70-17 Front + 190/50-17 Rear

Closest i could find on the rear.... :D

What do you mean they got recalled?.... I love mine

Michelin has launched a campaign to recall its Pilot Power 2CT and Pilot Power 120/70 ZR 17 front motorcycle tyres with “Made in France†markings. An examination of these tyres showed a possible defect in the tread due to a manufacturing irregularity. No cases of pressure loss have been reported and no accidents have occurred.

Because customer safety is its primary concern, Michelin has decided as a precaution to replace certain 120/70 ZR 17 Michelin Pilot Power 2CT and Michelin Pilot Power front tyres, which can be identified by the following markings on the sidewall:

a “Made in France†label

DOT 6UCW 980T or DOT 6UCW 979T

Pilot Power: week numbers 2704 to 0406 inclusive

Pilot Power 2CT: week numbers 4505 to 1807 inclusive

These tyres will no longer be sold by dealers.

A special telephone number for consumers has been set up to provide customers with information about the campaign and will be operational on Monday 18 June from 8.30 a.m.

The telephone numbers are:

UK : 0800 454774

Republic of Ireland: 0044 (0)1782 401535

Hmm I origianlly thought that it was a specific serial # along with the made in france stamp.. sounds like any of the tires made in france are being recalled.

Well shit. I am DOT 6UCW 980T # 4506. Number 2 of the recalled tires. This will be fun. I bet it takes forever for a refund. So what is my next step....?

Thanks for the link, now I'm gonna search and check their reviews. Anyone have experience w/ the qualifiers?

I think Tara (r6chic) has a set of these on her bike. Not 100% sure though, try sending her a PM, I don't think she gets on the board much.

I ahve had the Corsa III's on my bike since last summer and love them. I have not tracked them yet but that is coming soon. They will give you a whole new level of confidence on your bike especially when at more than cruising lean angles.

Id have to agree, I have put about 600 miles on the Corsa III's since they were mounted yesterday, Great tires. Well worth it especially in the twisties!:D
