Front Tyre Choice For My 2006 Monster 1000?

Discussion in 'Tyres' started by James English, Apr 23, 2018.

  1. Looking to replace the front tyre on my 2006 Monster 1000, currently it's got a Michelin Pilot (120/70 17) on it and Pirelli Diablo Strada (180/55 17) on the rear. I'm thinking of going Diablo on the front and was looking at the Diablo Corsa II.
    I use my bike for fun not commuting so 95% of use is dry. Not looking at track/racing use.
    Do you guys think this is a good choice?

  3. How worn is the rear? If it hasn't got far to go look for a matched pair deal, sometimes you can save quite a lot.

  4. Good advice thanks. I see you're in NZ too, I'm in Nelson. Who do you use to supply & fit?

  5. I got my Michelins PR4's from Cycletreads (.co.nz) and had them fitted and balanced by a local Motorcycle Shop.
