Dragon Supercorsa Pro
Pros, cons & observations
Themes extracted from owner reviews found online — not the opinion of TireWheelGuide.
Tire A Spirit ST
Pros
- Excellent grip in dry, cold and wet conditions, with confidence-inspiring braking and wet-weather performance, and capability extending to occasional track use
- Stable, predictable handling at high speeds and under heavy loads (pillion and luggage), with a comfortable ride and low noise
- Good tread life reported by several riders, who describe even wear, resistance to squaring off and mileage up to nearly double that of Michelin tyres
Cons
- Wear complaints from a minority, including one rider who got only about 2,000 km
- Reluctance to turn in fast direction changes and a lack of feedback from the tyres, according to one reviewer
- Front tyre vibration and shaking over 60 mph on one BMW K1600GT, which persisted after rebalancing at two garages
Tire B Dragon Supercorsa Pro
Pros
- Exceptional dry weather grip and traction
- Precise handling and high-quality front-end feedback
- Quick warm-up time
Cons
- Very short tread life and high wear rates
- Poor performance and lack of confidence in wet conditions
- Not suitable for daily commuting or all-weather riding

How do we compare tires?
Every category score blends two independent signals. 60% comes from professional tire tests (braking distances, lap times, noise measurements), each result compared with every other tire in the same test and newer tests counting more. 40% comes from owner reviews found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates. Both use one scale: the average tested tire gets 70, the best 100. When a tire has only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from the other and the score stays closer to average; with no road test and fewer than five owner reviews it gets no score yet.
Handling is the exception: road tests measure it inside the dry and wet scores, so its own row comes from owner ratings only and starts as less important.
