Just put a corsa 4 on the rear yesterday. Put 200 miles on it today. Amazing tire.
How many miles did it last you?
also wondering how many miles they lasted and how many track days?
I’ve had two sets on a kawasaki Z900. They ain’t last long! 5000 miles. Still, getting my third set soon. These tyres hook the ground. Running at 36PSI front and 40 - 42 rear
I run the Rosso Corsa 2 (since replaced by the RC4) on my track bike and love it. Looking forward to trying the new ones soon
I picked up a set of these mid summer this year. I really enjoy them. Feels really planted mid corner and on the exit. 👍🏾
Just to clear up Pirelli's confusing naming convention:
These are 'Rosso 4, Corsa' the rear has carbon black edges and slightly different carcass compared to the regular 'Rosso 4'.
The 'Rosso Corsa' was released in 2010, the rear used dual compound with carbon black edges and was a different tire than the Rosso 1, 2, 3.
The 'Rosso Corsa 2' was its replacement released in 2018 and the rear uses tri compound with carbon black edges. It appears that the Rosso 4 Corsa is replacing this line of tires.
Yes. That’s our understanding as well, I just really struggle keeping the naming conventions straight when I’m recording. Seriously, though, these tires impressed the hell out of us!!
@@CanyonChasers my comment was mostly to clear up other commenters 😆 your content is always awesome. I want to try the R4C rear when the 180/60 is available.
I have run RC2s since they came out and like them a lot. Have also run SCs, R2 a little and R3. Figured a Rosso Corsa 3 would come out eventually but it seems they wanted to have the Rosso and Rosso Corsa lines numbered similarly going forward. I'll probably give these a try for my next set unless the RC2s are at a steep discount.
So overall is Diablo Rosso IV or Corsa IV better?
@@thefiveo344 The fronts are essentially the same both being dual compound silica, the difference is in the rear tire. The R4 uses harder silica in the center and softer silica on the shoulders, the R4C uses softer silica in the center and SC3 compound on the shoulders.
You can choose what suits you best, the R4 rear leans towards balancing wear which is useful for the street, and the R4C rear leans towards maximizing grip which is great for track days.
The Supercorsa SPv4 adds SC3 compound to the front shoulders as well for maximum dry grip on a "street" tire.
I have run the predecessor to the 4 - the 3! - for a while including track days, and it is a great road/track option. Seems to hold up well in terms of wear and has reasonably good grip. With my limited skills I find it behaves well at the limit, whether the limit is me if the bike/tyre
This is the Rosso IV CORSA (keyword), which means it uses their SC compound on the shoulders.
@@ayowser01 I now know that - I have replaced the 3s with the 4SCs.
@@brianglendenning1632 there are no rosso CORSA 3 only rosso 3.rosso and rosso corsa is different type of tyre
I am running these. Amazing tires, agree!
I haven't tracked them yet, but I just put the IIIs on and put over a thousand miles from LA to the Grand Canyon and back, over some pretty crappy roads and they're looking just broken in.... I'm sure the IVs are better!
I currently use the S22 for sport riding on the street, mostly in case I run into a situation where I need to be able to ride on water, but I'm interested in trying something else like it. Which similar tires would you recommend trying out?
Bad ass tires 🔥
We like 'em!
the yellow print looks cool. diablos are great
They are great for 2500 miles, I’m going to stretch it out a bit to 3k because I primarily ride in the mountains “at a spirited pace”
Just ordered a set for my 600, can’t wait to try them
How they working out?
The wider shoulder reminds me of the Q3 plus which is good since I’m used to the shape more. However still debating on getting the S22, QS5, Rosso 4 or even perhaps one of these. Main riding is in town, occasionally twisties and eventually track again in few years from now unfortunately
get the regular DR4 then, perfect for your situation!
I used to run SPV2. Pirelli discontinued them last year. What do you think is Diablo 4 a good replacement?
How does this compare to the regular Rosso 4? Have the Rosso 4’s on my tuono, but this corsa 4 might be good for my 675 as an average trackday rider? (Been running p5’s on the 675 for a while)
I have them on my Streetfighter V2. 190/55 rear and front the normal size. The Corsa gives a very good response and grip on dry surface roads and are easy to get turned into a corner. They are not great in the rain and to me feel very slippery but that's maybe because compound itself is soft. So, good track day/road tire as long ist not raining.
I’m seeing light lines around the edges of my 240 rear tire is that normal on a multi compound tire
Makes curious. This tire vs the Rosso Corsa 2
Hi, what size is the rear tyre? Trying to decide between 190/55 and 200/60 for my tuono. Thanks
Get the 200/60. It’s the better option
Thanks 👍 @@CanyonChasers
That front wheel looks a little tight, can't tell if someone is holding the brake.
I thought so too. I’ll clean the calipers before the next outing.
Is it raining?
Why not run the Supercorsa SP?
Because we were testing the Quattro Corsas (but I think I prefer the Supercorsa SP, Truth be told)
On the front tyre, when the writing is nearly rubbed off, is the tyre finished? Just asking as I’ve been running them for half a year and two track days and the writing is nearly gone on the front but not the back and hitting road bends feels unstable. 👍🏻
The text has less to do with what I think is going on. What I suspect you may be experiencing is the rear tire has worn much faster than the front or one of your tires has baked out - which happens with racier tires. What I would probably do is replace the rear first, see if that fixes thing, and if it still feels weird, then replace the front. It's not uncommon to run two rears to one front.
@@CanyonChasers As soon as you mentioned that the tyres might be baked I thought that you may have a point as they only get slightly warm. I’ve literally changed both today but really trying to learn about the issues. Thank you 👍🏻
Thank for p.s.i!!!!
I’ve never done track days still pretty new at riding my bike calls for 36 F/ 42 R pressures for street use ofc. Seems odd to me you run the rear that low though on track . Is that normal?
Yep. Normal race tire pressure is 34f/26r hot - with the tire warmers on. Cold pressure is obviously even lower than that.
Never too early to start track days - one of the best way to improve skills. Also, try mountain biking but swap the brake levers so they are right-front just like your motorbike.
What’s good psi to run these on the street ?
I run these for the street but you only get 2000kms out of them. Riding street like a track though, so fair enough. They're great but don't last at all
Any chance you have tried the Q5? If so, how do they compare?
I haven’t but my buddy has. He says they grip slightly better than the Q3 but wear out super fast.
@@CanyonChasers trying to decide between these (RCIV), and the Q5 for my next set…
I'll just say my buddy replaced his Q5 with Pirelli's
@@CanyonChasers that’s a good enough endorsement for me, haha! Thanks!
Why does it look so hard to rotate your front wheel? Should spin more freely, no?
tight brakes it looks like.
How’s the feedback from the front? I ran the rosso 3’s on track here in Miami, but I didn’t like the lack of communication I was getting from the front end as opposed to my old Dunlop Q3+’s I’ve used for years that would clearly let you know what they were doing underneath you
The front was the superstar of these tires. I literally could not tell the difference between it and the SC3 slick.
@@CanyonChasers intriguingly high praise
TBT - I still prefer slicks, but we purchased these because we needed to use the bike in a situation where we wouldn't be able to use tire warmers. The rear does not last as long as a slick kept on warmers. So for user requirements, I don't see myself running these tires very often. In most cases, I'd rather have a slick, or someting more durable like The Rosso's. But they do work great in this pretty specific situation quite well.
Ummmm..... this is a primary daily that can do a task day (maybe)
are those cold or hot pressures?
I had to go back and look at my notes, and my notes say "32F/30R Cold"
Even the "D" makers mark is in place. Dang you set a low bar...
He ment it hasnt worn past that
The rear is 200/60?
Yes.
I like pie.
Better than S11?
Yes. I like them more than the S11
No higher accolade than a guy or girl saying they brought a decent product with their own money to test instead of getting it given to them for free to test.
As a upgraded version for corsa 3...this tyre has more grip and better handling....but here its will bite your pocket a bit😅😅😅
Corsa 3 doesnt exist. Italian naming you know.
Thats cold pressure your talking about. So 36 front n probably 32 -34 in the rear. Hmmmm 🤔
I mean cold is how it’s supposed to be measured. I have zero track experience though so my opinions are basically moot.
Just seems off to me to have the rear substantially lower then the front. My bike calls for 36 front 42 rear but for street use ofc.
Didn’t know people ram that low of psi on track
I'd only test hot pressure after tyre warmers been on. Your running crazy pressure n losing so much grip bro
You gain anywhere from 4 - 8 psi cold to hot. Give it a try 😉. You'll not be disappointed
Will last 1000 miles lpl
My interest in anything Pirelli evaporated when I found out 45% of the company is controlled by ChemChina, or in other words the Chinese Communist Party.
Wait till you find out every single part on your motorcycle is made from kid's labor in 3rd world countries
Yikes!!
Running chicken strips 😜😜
There is a subliminal message in the middle of the video. If you play it backwards, the red devil itself will appear in your garage.
28 psi on the rear no possible ….that’s flat dude
You don’t ride track, do you?
@@GhostHammerX unfortunately not but I would really love to
@@claudiumoldovan1871 28psi is pretty normal pressure range for tires like these on trackday.
32/28 is what I run on my
Michelin slick2
As an italian everytime an american try to pronounce italian words its like a stab in my ❤
How is it pronounced in I-talian?
@@snappycattimesten "bibbipity boppity piddipi poppidi"
Soo glad you said that, it’s like listening to someone with a mouth full of potato’s when you guys speak English 😂
