Ok,
I just got Corsa IIIs put on about a month ago. Before today, my work schedule hasn't allowed for a good ride. Actually had less than 100 miles on them today when I started.
I rode about 35 miles out and the same back. Some very nice twisties on some very nice pavement.
The first thing I have to say is that they stick like glue. I came off Avon sport/touring tires and it has been awhile since I have ridden tires with an aggressive profile. Having said that, the first 30mph corner that I dropped into at about 65 skeered me a little. These tires love to drop into the corner hard. No slippage, just dropped into the corner faster and harder than I expected. Once my initial "OH Shyte" was over with I started playing a bit.
On the ride back I was hammering the same type of corners between 80 and 90. The bike stuck like it was on rails. I can't wait until after this winter and I do the suspension upgrades.
That's it.
Thanks for reading.
Don
