I had them on a Supermoto once and they were shit, but I put that down to the bike being far to light to be able to warm them up properly. Dedicated Supermoto tyres are the only way to go on those.

What are the Corsa's like for wear? I like the idea of a Summer tyre but would like to see 4k+ out of my next rear really.

I wouldn't mind but I have another bike to buy tyres for every year also and they always end up needing doing at the same each other!

Standard fitment is the Bridgestone S20's or Dunlops. Most people rate the Bridgestones better. I had the S20's on mine, good when warm, not so great in winter when its cold and wet, take an age to warm up.

Do look to be very sporty tyres more for like an R1 or summat you might take on track day as well as the road. Though suspect the dealer will only swap out if I pay full whack, but know in past I have ran the stock tyres on a new bike and wish changed sooner especially for wet conditions.
Do like look of pilot road 4's would of been next tyre on previous bike to.

Mine came with S20s .Great grip for the warm aussie climate but only lasted 4000km. I have now fitted Dunlop Q3s which seem to have similar grip to the S20s but hopefully more mileage .
