I admittedly bought the tire about 4 years ago and my bike sits under the house most of the time.
I reckon I get it out once a fortnight so it’s not done a lot of kilometres.
From memory, Pirellis used to be made in Italy. This one is Chinese and has developed a split in between the tread, down to the banding in the centre of the tire.
Seems like poor quality.
I’m a bit pissed. If I’d used it more regularly or off road I’d feel ok but there’s bugger all kilometres on it.

Great tire for road - touring and a bit of off road rides, quick warm up.

Oem to my multistrada 1200s.
It was good in the start of there life ...I had it until 15.000 KM and now it is for replacement.I am not sure that is the tire i want.
Next step is the Michelin pilot 5 cause i want a more sportier tire

Not happy with these just clocked up 1200 miles breaking in a new ktm 1290s and must say no hard throttle and all ready showing signs of mild flating off, also in the wet tires are quite twichy, overall not very impressed and wont be fitting again.

Here in the States, I use these tires on my 2014 BMW R1200RT-LC. I know that the Sport touring crowd won't read this but that's OK. I ride typically the back roads of the United State Highways such as Route 66, and on many occasions have run into situations of snow, muddy pot holes, pea gravel, course gravel, dirt, and clay, and friends I don't turn around! A set of II's went on after the Original Pirelli scorpion trails wore out, and they were a great improvement over the originals. They are sticky, and give great control on dry and wet roads, and not so much off road. But I do have the confidence to continue down any road with any problems

extremely grippy in the dry for a Dual Sport tire. Potent on light enduro trails, however, when on wet roads they can be quite a handfull. I got a tank slapper on my KTM 1290 Adv just for going straight.
The middle threads don't let the water go out, and if it rains heavelly, you'll "fill" them up and that will cause an aqvaplanation (or whatever you call it in english).
also a bit loud.
