Sync leading the way
Having had this tire on a month now, part of a new set of Syncs, they have proven to be worth their weight. All kinds of riding, highway, canyon carving, SNOW!! They have held very well, never let go without warning, and look to be wearing very. Look forward to getting more then 1500 miles on a set of tires that look to be able to handle everything I am throwing at them.

Great tire for Buell sporty standard bikes
Got the tire just in time to mount for a track day at Mid Ohio, where the syncs performed perfectly, all the way to the point where I was dragging a knee and scraping pegs (which on a XB9SX is getting ***way*** over) with no slipping and no drama. Smooth and predictable lean, plenty of stick for any kind of rational street riding, enough grip to keep up with the "fast novice" guys on a track day. And to top it off, they don't go all wobbly kneed if you are in gravel or wet grass. I get at least 9k miles out of a front, and at least 6k out of a rear, with hard street use and one track day. A fantastic pick for a tire for rationally powered sporty standard bike (i.e. Buell XBS, Ulysses, XT, Multistrada, SV, Hypermotard, etc). I wish it were cheaper, that’s a lot of money for just one tire, but it is very competitively priced relative with tires that are far worse.

Pirelli Scorpion Sync
My first Scorpion (OEM) lasted 15,000miles. I had no complaints with it, so I bought another. The next day I headed out for Virginia from Orlando, Fl. The first 450 miles were up I-75 to just North of Atlanta. From there the next 1600 miles were twisties. The usual Cherehola Skyway, Blueridge parkway, Dragon's tail- you get the picture. Some rain, gravel, mud but mostly good roads. The tire performed flawlessly through 10 days of constant riding. 2400 miles altogether.

Absolute best DP tires
For me, I like my DP tires to grip like a monster on pavement and be predictable in dirt. On my V-Strom 650, after the stock Trailwings were far enough gone (horrible tire BTW), I went back to Pirelli's. Now on the second rear tire (over 12k on the first) and just about to get a new front after almost 14k on it), I can say the Scorpion Sync's really give sportbike feel and still perform fine for minor off-roading. Very predictable, long-wearing (and I'm not gentle on them), and good all four season. Best DP tires I've used on any bike.

Pirelli on FZ1
I purchased this wallet as a Christmas gift for my boyfriend and he just loves it. He had been using his previous wallet for almost 10 years and I knew it was time for something new and the Fox wallet was the perfect idea. It's made with great quality and he loves the Fox head decal on the wallet as well.

good tire
I bought these as a replacement for the D208s on my Suzuki DRZ400sm. I have yet to try these on a trail, or in dirt or gravel. They do work very well on asphalt. I scrubbed them in on a cold day where tire temp was difficult to maintain especially on such a little bike, but they grip very well even on the very edge of the tire. They also slide predictably on the throttle and under braking. I worked a while trying to get the front to tuck on me, but I couldn’t really get it to. that’s pretty good in my book, the stock Dunlops would tuck if you thought about it. Good tire. I also tested them a bit on a ktm 950sm. they are the stock tire for that bike and they really worked on that thing. They heat up better on the ktm cause its heavier and the bikes just has tons more power. They really slide on the throttle well on the ktm. I’m sure alot of that can be attributed to the quality of the bike but it just seems the tire breaks wells. It takes thoughtful effort to get the spin and its quite smooth once it breaks. Basically means you can trust this tire if your trying to be smooth and maintain full traction.

Better than stock
I'm on my second set of Scorpion Syncs on my '04 Buell Lightning. Replacing the stock tires with the Scorps was like having a different motorcycle...better turn-in, less standup when braking in a turn, excellent grip wet or dry. Got about 8000 miles on the rear, 9500 miles on the front from my first set of Scorps.

True performance tires
I ride a 650 V-Strom and after swapping out more DP-centric tires for Scorpion Sync's front and rear the Strom's sportbike qualities really shine. Great grip wet and dry, they're very predictable even at extreme angles. I've only given 2500 miles, so I can say much about their longevity, but for sticking they're top notch.
