it must be something with these scorpions i had my first rear puncture in 28 years of on road riding at 1955miles have now put rp3s on totally transforms the already superb mutley now awaiting our pending italy/austria trip in 11days 3 hours and twenty five seconds but hey ho whos counting
I seem to have read quite a few stories about punctures on this tyre! Ordered and being fitted tomorrow, I have made the right choice I think......
Fitted! How bloody quickly do these turn in?!!! lol Having to remove the exhaust to remove the rear wheel is a PITA!!!
Ape2Duc you could have had my Rear Scorp for £25. Has 4/5mm of tread all over. Now have a set of MPR3's fitted and just got back from a 650 mile round trip to York and the moors. They were fine. The scorp is on the for sale/wanted bit of the Forum.
Has anyone tried Pilot Power 3's? as opposed to Pilot Road 3. Can't see any reference to this tyre in the forum.
MCN have tested a set of Pilot Power 3's on a Hyperstrada (which I think of as a 800cc Multi) and MCN were complimentary, so I think I will give them a go.
off the back of that comment I have ordered a set for my Multistrada! I am off to the Dutch TT at the end of the month and its guaranteed to be wet. i am travelling over with three really quick lads who are on sports bikes and will be 'pushing on a bit' so want to trust the tyres. .The original Scorpions are only 600 miles old so I will chuck them on the Bay to see if I can recoup some of the cost.
