Ulysses Tire, good but on the road only
I think it’s a great tire on the road. Unfortunately if you take the Ulysses off road or on sandy, rocky fire breaks of primitive roads they done last. I don’t think mine will make it to 9K.

Good Wear-Excellent price
Put a set of Sync's on my '04 Buell XB12R. Got over 6k out of the rear and the front is still going. I commute 140 miles a day, but still love to get on it when I find some twisties. Cornering is very smooth and stable. This summer has been wetter than usual and I've ridden in some pretty heavy rain and stability in the rain is great, not a twitch. Much better than the stock Dunlop D208's which were lasting only 2500-3000 miles. Superstore service is great and I'll be returning for more very soon.

Pirelli - Scorpion Sync Rear Tire
What can I say but 12,000 miles!! That's right. My last Pirelli - Scorpion Sync Rear Tire lasted me 12000 miles on a torque monster: Buell 1200cc. Great heanling, very progressive lean in, the best tire I ever used.

Pay A Little More, Get More
Simply put: a strong, long lasting tire! A little higher in price than other tires in the same league, but by my experience Pirelli's reliability and durability is unmatched; a true case of you get what you pay for. I've tried other tires, even the newer dual-compound stuff, but always came back to scorpion sync's on a BMW 12GS, Ducati Multistrada, and currently on a Triumph Tiger 1050. Outstanding wet and dry grip, very smooth, and even wearing assuming your tire balancing is correct. The pitch of the front tire allows for quicker response in the twisties as well - far more responsive than Pilot Roads.

Great tires!! Hopefully will get 13,500 miles on this set like the last pair of Syncs....

Scorpion Sync Rear
I'll have to say that the tire is a great fix with the right features for the demands of an off terrain bike like my Buell, Ulysses. My bike came with Sync tires, My rear took a leak from my gravel road, unsure on the cause but could have been about anything found on a gravel road, so I’d really like to know its true "tread life"? I got about 3400mi before the leak. Regarding, Motorcycle Superstore, Buy from them!!! Best prices I could find anywhere and their service, perfect!!! Order to door was less than 4 days. Just ordered a front from them as well and ditto. Same service. Thanks gang

Pirelly Scorpion Synch
A wonderful tire with poor durability, at least as far as my bike (BMW R1200R) is concerned. Mounted them for a 2,300 miles trip to the Big Bend and the rear is almost finished. Wonderful wet weather and dry tire but as mentioned above wears very quickly.

Great tire for sporty standard
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 leaast 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 to tires that are far worse.

The perfect Tire for buell XBs
This was the original tire on my buell xb9sx and it lasted me 8800 miles and could have went longer but decided to change it before it went on too long. Tire was balanced perfectly on mount up and has given me no problems both in the city, on the twisties and even on some back roads. Thanks for the great tire Pirelli and the great deal Motorcycle Superstore. I will return to purchase all of my tires.
Thank You

perfect
These came with the ktm sm 990...so far (first 1700km) very good...no sliding, and very good grip at high acceleration and stopping. They slide only at hard breaking and slow speeds.

Great tire for the Ulysses. Tight, predictable grip, good off pavement, not bad total milaeage. Get around 5-7k for rear, 10 or so for front. Definitely a huge improvement over the Dunlops. Great price from Motorcycle-Superstore.

Pirelli Scorpion Sync
This is the replacement rear tire for my Ducati Multistrada. I have about 700 miles so far on it and no complaints at all. Riding single or double up I don't even think about the tire. Good grip on dry and wet roads. I don't ride aggressively however double up, so pushing it might give different results. The last one I had (same tire), got 8800 miles before it needed replacing.

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.

A Perfect Fit for the Ulysses
After wearing out the stock Dunlaps on my XB12X, I switched to the Sporpion Sync's which I like and it changed the way I feel about my Ulysses. They have plenty of grip to grind off your peg feelers and are very stable on line. I thought the front of my Uly was twitchy until I put a set of these on. Now it very predictable with a sharper turn in with amazing grip. I'm on my third set and I'm averaging 4500 miles on a back tire and I change the front every other time.

15000 miles
That’s right I got 15000 miles on these tires. They were factory equipment on my 06 Buell XB9SX. I ride in all conditions, city, hwy, twisty, country roads, I rode 3 miles on a fire road. I even took it to the dragstip and did 4 passes with it, each with a small burnout. The last 5000 miles have been mostly Hwy and a flat spot finally became flat enough to hit wear bar. I think if it were not for the hwy I would be able to ride it even longer. I have only ever been able to slide the back end on crosswalks or a panic rear brake at low speed. The grip in any conditions inspires tons of confidence. My friends are all in amazement at the performance of the tires. I honestly wanted to try other tires on my bike but after the performance and mileage I got I am sticking with them. I am in the process of buying another set right now.

Scorpion SYNC Tires
Outstanding! This is my third set. I ride hard, lot's of canyons and twisty roads and still got 6000 miles out of the last rear tire. 8000 miles out of the front. Best wearing and handling tire to date and I have tried them all!

Scorpion Sync Tires
These are the most aggressive looking and acting tires that I've ever had! I put these on my Honda CBR 600 F4i and they immediately gripped to the road. The tires are very light weight and allows for a lot more control. I would recommend for any sportbike!!!

Scorpion Sync Tires
Replaced the stock Dunlops on my Buell XB9S with the Syncs. They made a dramatic positive improvement in handling confidence, faster turn-in and less tendency to stand up under braking. I ride pretty easy and not much highway miles. I got about 8000 miles out of the rear and will get 10000 from the front.

Scorpion SYNC Rear Tire
These are the best tires that I've tried so far. I like them so much that this is my second set. They have excellent dry & wet grip. These tires really give me confidence. I'm an aggressive rider who loses the chicken strips after the first 100 miles and the rear SYNC tire gave me 4500 good miles and 300 milder miles before I had to replace it.
