We run Supercorsas on everything. NSR250, RC45, RC30, and even NSR500V. An outstanding tyre, but all track bikes so cannot comment on road wear.

Personally, I really don't like the Bridgestone 090s after having bad experiences with two MC21s with them fitted, however I am definitely in the minority. We actually have 090s fitted to one of the NSR500s... the only one that anyone has crashed (on a track day!).

We just fitted Bridgestone Battlax S20 Evos to an MC21 for a client yesterday, but the bike's in for a full recommission and they won't be assessed for a few months yet. Reasonably priced, and don't get terrible reviews for either grip or longevity.

We may possibly start to find a wider choice of rubber coming on to market in the correct sizes again soon, as 110 & 150 seem to be starting to fall back in to favour with the new generation of "sporty" 125s.

We are considering importing a few sets of sticky tyres with the next shipment from Japan if there is any real demand... lots of space in containers for sticky tyres! No idea why Dunlop still don't import the α13; by all accounts it's a fantastic lightweight tyre. I personally loved the GPR-SP predecessor on the road.
