i had the battlax 56r on my 2000 hayabusa. i went through two rear tires, when time for a third, including a new front, the shop rec was the pirelli diablo. even with this cheep verson pirelli, much improved ride, handling and even wear. i plan to try these on my r1 when the oem's go.

thanks eddie.. well I was desperate for a new rear tire and couldn't wait for getting something from the internet, so had to go to the dealer right away and the 56R is what I had to settle for in the rear.. Pirelli Diablo is what I had before and loved it.. I will switch back once the 56R wears out, which should be soon.. you will not be disappointed once you switch to the Diablo's :rock
