Pirelli Diablo Rosso IV Front Motorcycle Tyre - 120/70ZR-17 TL 58W
• Superb grip while braking, thrust boost in extreme lean angles and brilliant traction exiting the corner
• Lightening handlebar response to rider inputs and smooth feedback while cornering
• WSBK-derived structures and contours
• Silica-enriched multi-compound for both front and rear tyres
• Best performance on road use, on both wet and dry roads
THE SUPERSPORT TYRE FOR ROAD USE
Within motorcycles scenario, high-displacement (> 999 cc) bikes set 200hp as a standard threshold, often
reaching the astonishing power of more than 215hp for several Superbike and Hypernaked machines. In this
picture, we must include also sporty crossovers capable of delivering 160hp on 240kg machine more than
140 cm tall and 600cc Supersport and Naked bikes with almost the same weight of the bigger displacement
counterpart but with no more than a half of the power.
DIABLO ROSSO™ IV sets a reference in the Supersport segment for all these classes of motorcycles. Therefore
PIRELLI decided to differentiate the rear tyres product characteristics based on the size, and therefore the type of
motorcycle in order to perfectly deliver the requirements for each rider.
THE SPORTIEST TYRE FOR ROAD USE, REGARDLESS OF THE WEATHER CONDITIONS
• Superb grip while braking, thrust boost in extreme lean angles and brilliant traction exiting the corner
• Lightening handlebar response to rider inputs and smooth feedback while cornering
• Best performance for road use, on both wet and dry roads.
TYRE TECHNOLOGY
A dual compound front tyre, coupled with Cap & Base layout rears: a dual
compound for low to medium displacement motorcycles and a tri-compound for
Superbike and Hypernaked machines.
FRONT TYRE
The hard layer delivers outstanding grip in cold and wet conditions. The side softer
layer (accessed when in lean angles over 35°) offers excellent grip and delivers
a brilliant contact feeling. Combined this gives the rider the option to adjust the
trajectory while cornering or to delay braking ahead of entering into lean.
DUAL COMPOUND REAR TYRES, UP TO 190/50 ZR 17
The full silica dual compound rear offers quick warm up, significant grip level
regardless of lean angle (even in wet conditions) and riding smoothness.
TRI-COMPOUND REAR TYRES, FROM 190/55 ZR 17 ABOVE
Introducing an endurance-racing compound, the 5-zone layout trades wet grip on
high lean angles for thrust boost to cope with the extreme cornering speed and
the astonishing engine outputs of modern performance motorcycles. The soft full
silica mid rubber strip ensures performance whilst delivering a safe sporty ride
across all weather conditions.
