Triumph Daytona 675 Tyre Review Highlights

Writing about the Michelin Power GP given 84% (190-55-17-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 15000 spirited miles
I've run several sets of Power GPs on three different motorcycles. I do street/track riding, which is exactly what the tires are for. They are excellent. Comfortable riding, great feedback, cheaper than S22s. I tried RS11s then went right back to the Power GPs. Do grip is excellent and I've either never had them slip, or they slipped with so little drama that I didn't notice, and I do ride pretty hard. I've logged nearly 20k km on four sets. You read that correctly. I only get about 5-6k km out of a set, but I have glorious twisty roads so around me and they get pushed every ride. The GPs have never slipped in the wet, but I do ride cautiously in wet conditions. They will do fine for wet street riding. They perform fine in the winter on cold roads too, just don't get to overconfident. A buddy did and laid his bike down. He admits it was more his fault than the tires. Now the GP2 is out. I'll probably give those a try next.

I was sceptical at first as there were not many reviews online but I went for it anyway. This tire is amazing. Grippy and agile straight out of the shop, as though it was already on tire warmers. Went for 100 miles canyon ride the day after installed. Easy to lean and manoeuvre which reminds me of Bridgestone RS10, great feedback and it just stay grippy all the way without giving up. It behaves nicely on damp road too, unlike the supercorsas feels twitchy and zero confidence. I’m no track rider but this tire is just perfect for road despite Michelin’s claimed 50-50 track and road. Fully recommended.

Great tyres in all aspects. Ride in all conditions in Sweden and haven't had any issues with them. Two trackdays done with them (warm and dry circuit) and they will last one or two more for sure.

Driving on mostly country roads for 600 average miles
Fine in the dry but riding in the rain for the first time these spun out on bitumen patches while cruising 100 kph in a straight line! Has never happened before with sport/tourer choices I usually run. Only 1000 km on a new Daytona 675 but I'll be changing them asap.

Writing about the Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SC given 83% (180-55-17-R)
Driving on a combination of roads for 5000 average miles
I ride a 2013 Triumph Daytona 675 which comes fitted with Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SC tyres fitted. I run tyre pressure of 34 front and rear. I have done 8000 km (5000 miles). The front tyre has reached its tread wear indicator about 500 km ago which makes it illegal although it still feels fine. The rear is still legal and looks like it has another 1500-2000 km left. The tyres warm up very quickly and are very sticky in the corners. I have never had a "pucker" moment with them, even in the wet. They give you confidence on the tarmac. Never ridden on dirt with them and don't plan to!

Driving on a combination of roads for 1000 spirited miles
I don't doo too many miles on my 675 but after 2800 km's the front of the supercora from new was worn out. As I replace in pairs I thought I would get some standard Diablo's, after 1000 km's I am replacing them, the Supercorsa had a great feel, and never moved on hard cornering. The Diablo moves around on the back n throttle, a bit unnerving for me,

cannot fault this tyre but will
in the dry it is perfect massive lean angle and perfect in the wet loads of grip
for me only down side is it has only last 6k miles in 8 months and for me thats not enough
the avon storms i had on my last bike lasted 11k
otherwise perfect

Writing about the Dunlop Sportsmart given 96% (225-45-17-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 6500 spirited miles
Made the switch to these from the diablo corsa's that my 675 came with out of the shop, I hated the feeling of being like bambi on ice when it came to being out on a slightly wet road. So I decided to give these a go. I'll admit I came off the bike while scrubbing them in, so barely had 100 miles on them. If I'd known then what I'd known now about how grippy the tyre was, I would of pushed the tyres onto the edges instead of standing it up. In all the dunlops are a fantastic tyre, the grip in both dry and wet gave me plenty of confidence even after my earlier spill on them. I'll ride in all weathers except the most extreme, snow and ice are where I draw the line, but having been caught in quite a few heavy downpours I'd have to say that they did the job amazingly well. As for how long they'll last I've pushed mine rather hard, high speeds, twisty roads, the lot and they're just coming up to 6500+ miles, needing to change them now, but they've lasted a good while in the process. Well recommended for anyone who wants a tyre that'll give plnety of grip in the dry or wet and won't need replacing after over a couple 1000 miles.

Driving on a combination of roads for 7000 spirited miles
I've had two sets of these now on my Daytona 675.
On good tarmac they are brilliant, the cliche about cornering on rails was invented for these tyres, on a dry road, with good tarmac.

Unfortunately, for those us in the UK the tarmac has usually been cut up by utility companies, or has dust on them in the summer, or mud from the rain, or water/damp from where it was raining, and in those conditions the tyres can struggle.

So, I'm now going to fit the Diablo Rosso Corsa's, which I hope have some of the Supercorsa's good points without the bad.

Writing about the Bridgestone Battlax BT 023 given 96% (225-45-17-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 4000 spirited miles
I have a 675 that I've owned for 3 years so I've tried various tyres and have to say these 23s are brilliant. I ride 300 miles a week all year round and agree the wet grip is really good and water is dispersed from the tyre efficiently. I'm happy to use front brake in the wet while starting to lean into turns and that wouldn't be the case without the grip they provide. The only other wet tyre that i think might be as good is the Pirelli Diablo or Strada ( which i have on another bike) Dry grip is also very good. I have around 5mm of chicken strips left from road riding and have never had the tyre step out of line ever. The tread is still uniform and deep across the tyre widths, and profile has not flattened atall. I'm confident that I'll see an unheard of 8-10k miles from them. Really!! They warm up fast and mine have slight signs of bobbling rubber from hard cornering. I'm looking fwd to a trackday in a couple of weeks - wet or dry I don't mind. Ignore the hype of needing super sport tyres on a 600 (the 675 has Diablo Super corded as standard) as they don't match the all round performance of a BT023.

I have had these fitted about 100 Miles ago so cant give a full review on them, but so far they seem pretty good. They warm up fairly quick but not as fast as Michelin 2ct's, I'm trying them on the track in a few weeks so will update on that side once done. For a good overall tyre they seem very good, hard wearing and I dont regret putting them on.

Good good tyre, not quite as good as the GP racer though. But then I only really use my bike in the dry...
