Anyone run 003s?
How do they handle? How do they compare to the 211s or Supercorsas?

I ran 211's on my 675 for most of last year and loved them. I haven't run the 003's yet but will try them next time out. A few guys I know run them and swear they are as good or better then the Dunlops or Pirelli's. Last weekend, I ran a set of the B-stone slicks and liked them well enough to go back and try the 003's. Like the 211's they seem to give good feedback from the front. The rear felt a bit vague but they slid predictably, not the all or nothing I got on Michelin's. I haven't ridden the Supercorsa's except for the OEM tires. Sorry it is not a direct comparo, but based on the slicks and the prices of the B-stones, I think they are certainly worth a try.

675...I run supermoto specific tires on the Husky
Thanks for the review. How do they last compared to other dot race tires? I ride on the street as well. |

I ran my girls 750 with 003s at the track, and compared to my 002s on the 1000....
They stick a tad better, however I use alot more of the 1000s power, so I got a little more "slide" or slipping on the 002s. But I prefer the 002s because of the good deal I can get on them VS 003s.(thanks to a Tigger link posted months ago) *edit - not sure if you're refering to the compound race 003s or the RacingStreets, both cases I rode the RS's. |

Oh and I love the 002s, they slip but it's predictable and "natural" if that makes sense? |

When I started losing it with the pilot powers, they give way some, then ALOT, then come right back sort of unsettling the bike. Now I can feel it slip, I can actually roll on the throttle to let them go more, or slack back to get more grip. I thought they were just getting hot and greasy at first, but I noticed that even near the limits of these tires(or rather my limits on them), they're quite controllable. |
