So I popped my rear tire....

I had Diablo supercorsas on my Daytona, I switched now to Dunlop Q3. To me it's night and day, much better feel with the Q3, much more confident leaning in.
Now moving to new tires from a worn ones will always feel better so I don't know if it's a fair comparison.
 
I wondered why this thread had some many responses. Yep, csb(rah).

Dunlop are a hard carcass and Pirelli are soft. That means the Dunlops will transmit more "feel" to the bars than the Pirellis, which help to absorb some of the vibration through the wheel. But it's a matter of personal preference for how much feedback you like from the tires. I've ridden the Pirelli Diablo Corsa Rossos on the track and they grip really well to full lean. My next set of street tires will be the same.

Ended up getting Rossa Corsa. My buddy works at Zdeno so my bike was done in an hour, including front brake flush, clutch adjustment, chain cleaned and lubed.
Breaking the tires in right now. So far 50km.
I looked up and Pirreli doesn't use mold release but still gonna take it easy on the first 100km.
