Pirelli Scorpion Rally STR Long Term Review | IN DEPTH

[@senbee8342]

Your review is very exciting. I chose Pirelli Scorpion Rally str tires to install on my beloved Suzuki V-Strom 650XT. Your video was the final deciding factor. Thank you for the wonderful video. A message of gratitude from an ordinary Japanese rider.

Help him, he has a fish hook in his lip !

[@jonathanfrancisco6910]

Been shopping around for 2 days. I went back and forth between Anakee Adv, shinko 705, karoos. This video did it for me. Bought them last night

[@markbrown2885]

good move, awesome tires!

[@tripleGmoto]

I had these on my ducati scrambler and they were GREAT in the corners. I couldn't believe the level of confidence near full lean.

[@Lechu86]

Thumbs up for promoting Fort9's. It's a rare sight :)

[@coconuciferanuts339]

I've got these on my v-strom650 & I agree with your review 100%.

[@MotoFeelz]

Thanks heaps man!

[@SofianAManan]

Great review. Yes! You convinced me. Gonna change to this set of tires soon on my Triumph Adventure! Thanks!

[@shoibalchakraborty8746]

There’s so much coolness in these videos! Getting the STRs for my INT650!

[@Van-t5e]

What size front and rear? I was thinking fr: 120/70/18, rr: 150/70/18

[@aleksandarbotic979]

finally a great review, everything was explained, thank you. grippy, great in corners, good on dirt, great at speeds , thats all i need. ride safe brother

[@tijmenwobben]

What a great review!!! Thanks a lot. I bought them as well, so hyped to stick them on the bike!! Muchas gracias

[@MotoFeelz]

Pleasure man!

[@peterstokes2463]

Purchased a set of these from Revzilla based on your review for my 2014 Harley Sportster Superlow 883XL. My mechanic wasn't keen on them for a sportster but after putting them on he just called me and said they look and ride SICK!!!!! Super happy with them!!!

[@gatisspetersonss]

Str ambassador. Also went and bought them. Simply love them.

[@benjamindickens3558]

You have fixed my migraines and sold me on these tyres i was looking at TKC80 tyres for my bonneville project cheers mate great video

[@zigonator]

same here!

[@philiplaurell1163]

The Metzeler Tourance is a really good tire for street and rain. Very robust, very grippy and also attractive, not hard at all, like you say. It is a 95% on road tire and the Pirelli's should be near perfect for your type of riding.

[@22fret]

Had them on my Ténéré 700, quite decent tyres in many conditions, as long as it's not too muddy. And they last forever, I changed my set after 21.155 kms...

[@ragbag46]

I have done about 20,000kms on mine on my VERSYS 300X, just come back from 18 days in Laos in rainy season, lots of big potholes, lots of weaving trying to avoid them, also quite a lot of mud, very slimy and soft, also various avalanches, loose stones and rocks to avoid, overall glad I had them, my two rider colleagues had MT 60’s , they each had punctures same day but not the rally’s. Getting ready for 4000kms around Vietnam in December, think I will buy another set first. Great video.

[@audreysegura8933]

Love cornering as well but want the rugged look! Pushed me over the edge ! Mine arrive tomorrow ! Thank you !

[@rageeth]

Yeah you did. I was confused for weeks between the Anakee adventure, Metzeler karoo and then found this video . Def going for the Pirellis now. They look sick

[@Wideangle11]

totally SOLD, just changed the front to STR, need some more money will put STR in the rear...Great Review!

[@MotoFeelz]

Nice man! Glad to help!

[@thepab3072]

I'm sold, going to get these when I replace my tires. I do gravel pretty often and I love exploring a bit. Thanks for the review

Great review mate, getting Scorpion rally str on the street scrambler soon, can't wait, had shinko 804 before, really amazing too,good on corners too way way better than stock.

[@MotoFeelz]

Glad to hear it man! You won't be dissapointed!

[@ernestiku69]

Love them on my Svart, soon to get them on my R9T for the colder months coming. I will let you know how it goes. Great review!

[@MarkFoster-rs5xu]

I put these on my BMW 1250 GSA. They are great tires both on and off road. However...they are loud on the freeway from 75-85 mph...painfully so. Also, they can't handle rocky terrain on the big heavy bike. I literally popped the rear twice. It rips in the middle, between the knobs and is NOT repairable. The first time I was being very aggressive, and blamed myself for pushing too hard. The second time, they just flatted...same way..a split in the middle, and I wasn't pushing very hard. The rear is NOT the right tire for an aggressive rider on the big bike, unless you enjoy getting flats. Good luck!

[@andrewharris6347]

Yes, you got me over the line ... waiting for my current tyres to wear out first

[@MotoFeelz]

Haha stoked to hear it man! You’ll dig them

[@joelhartley1976]

I still have the metzlers on my SS. I think you've convinced me. I want to keep up with wifey on her svartpilen but I do also love my corners. Well done matey

[@MotoFeelz]

You’ll be able to do just that with these! Pleasure man!

[@ageless1003]

[@MotoFeelz]

it's not reaaaalllly made for it.. but i make it work haha

[@SecondHalfofLife]

Coming off a set of Avon Trailriders. They were good tires for touring and canyon carving and a gravel road here and there. They wear the center strip pretty fast on highways, which unfortunately is hard to avoid around here to get out of town. I think you sold me on these STRs though. Sound like they have a similar vibe but a little more panache and more dirt capable. I still love my on road cornering too and want something that feels safe in the wet (which the Avon's did well) and these sound like they'll do the trick. Going on 2012 Air cooled Triumph scrambler for me. I might got with the wider front as well... gives a really good look. Thanks for the review!

[@electrobob1]

I'm considering the Trailriders for my Guzzi Griso for eastatics/scrambler style. Makes it appear even more bold as it is now. greets!

[@707darren9]

Good video mate I put them on my GS and I am super happy with them. It's no problem to scrape pegs on both sides with these tires.

[@SeldomlyOften]

Great video! Had these tires on 2 bikes now. They are great in every situation.

[@MotoFeelz]

I love them hey! Such a good all rounder and look dope!

[@thisisme7587]

Good tyre. Rolls edge to edge so much better than the stock tourance. I hit a roundabout after first fit and nearly ended up in the middle it turned that sharp. Rear hooks up well off road....front..that's a yeah nah. Great on road, tends to wash sideways in wet or loose. I'd go more aggressive on the front for off-road. My new 1200 is begging for new shoes after the Kroombit tops ride

[@MonsterBuilt]

I have the Fantic Caballero Scrambler 500 and they are road racing tires. They handle turns at speeds. You are glued to the ground even on a 150 kilo motorcycle. I had a Lexus try to lose me In the mountains. They failed but I had this sensation from the vblocity of my helmet wanting to come off my head. Luckily for chin straps. Those are wicked tires and my motorcycle supposed to be in dual purpose. But those tires especially the backone is so fat and the ride is so smooth. If you don't want nobbies on your motorcycle and you still want to be able to do some dirt riding I would suggest these The perelli scorpion it's an awesome motorcycle tire. He is 100% correct. I habe abdominal injury so I cannot do much off road unless standing on the pegs. Mine are 2020 maybe a little different but total traction and handling. My motorcycle only has 400 km on it so I'm not comfortable yet doing a burnout but on my G TLI went to eagle GT's $400 apiece so often with 467 rear wheel HP. This moto is my baby and the tires make the 🏍

[@hesusfin]

Greetings from Finland! Great video and a nice review! I’m going to buy them for my SE Bonnie street scrambler.

[@91camaro100]

Just ordered a set for my MT07. I live on a dirt road, so every ride starts and ends on dirt. I didn't want to hurt my street performance, but wanted a bit more grip. I ride the stock tires way beyond their design off road. I want to swap them before it bites me. 😆 it's only a matter of time. Growing old is mandatory. Growing up is optional.

[@karlfonner7589]

Have you tried them? I’ve got a Kawasaki Z 400 .Can they be tubeless?

[@stonethecrows5334]

I've got these on my scrambler 1200 XE. Great road tyre, back hooks up well offroad BUT if you push hard on the dirt the front gets sketchy. Its always a compromise, great onroad performance you have to trade off-road I suppose. Excellent review Mate.

[@007Gofer]

Bloody great. Just ordered a set for my 2015 Vstrom 1000. 👍👍👍

[@__Yannick__]

Hey, Thank you for this review. It's amazing. I've always had the Tourance Metzlers on my F650GS Twin and replaced them with the Trailmax Missions which give me a death ruble at 80mph+. I'm contemplating between the Anakee Adventure, Scorpion Rally STR, or getting the Metzlers back. Have you got any experience with the Adventures, and how do the Scorpions compare with the Metzlers in the mud in particular in your opinion?

[@patkennedy1]

A bit late to this review! I put a pair of STRs on my new Transalp 2,400 kms ago, also in (South) Australia, and got a bit of a shock with the price (in late 2023). A 'Pirelli guy' for decades, wanting about 70% - 30% road/off-road, so the choice was easy. I am riding this bike fairly gently, now at 70 y. o (and after 61 years riding) but I am looking at a fair bit of wear already on the rear for this short mileage. And they cost more than the last set of Pirelli 'stickies' I put on my Ducati sports bike (its 27th set) with the 190 rear, where the Honda's is only a 150... So I was disappointed to notice that the front Pirelli STR was made in Indonesia, and the rear in China! In other parts of the world (Europe) they get STRs made in Brazil apparently. (You don't say where your 2020 ones came from). I wouldn't mind, except that they charge Italian prices for them! I find the tyres work fine, as you say, on bitumen or gravel, but some mention of tyre pressures may be worth including in a tyre test. But I take some encouragement from the distance you have achieved with them. I can't see me getting anywhere near that, given the visible wear on the rear at present, but hopefully they won't be finished by 4,000 kms, as I was starting to wonder, with a bit of a trip planned. Thanks for your test. I shall ride on with optimism, in light of your feedback, and see how long they last. The standard Dunlop rear was pretty finished at 5,000 kms, which included conservative running in, so we shall see.

[@backontwowheels9469]

Those scorpions look nice, I am looking to change my tyres in June, currently on OEM triumph tiger900 tyres which are pretty much a road focus tyre, which is fine for now and for the next few months. I have only done 667 miles but hoping to get a few thousand more when I bring the bike out to Germany with me (mountains near me YAY!!) and then change them up before the “Adventure Bike Rider festival” at the end of June, so will likely put on the battle axe tyres, as has been advised by others. You mentioned temperatures down to 7 degrees C, but being in the UK and Northern Europe that could be a normal spring day 😂. Was a shame the competition was not world wide, the stuff looks so cool.

I chose the Rally STRs too and I absolutely love them. They never scared me or did anything weird. I haven’t really tried them offroad yet. I would recommend them for anyone who is looking for scrambler tires. Also had a question, what drone are you using in some of the shots from the roadtrip ?

Nice review, looking for my next tyres for my 2018 Tiger 800 XCa and these are definitely on my list as I do around 70/80 road and 20/30 offroad stuff. Another tyre is the Metzeler Karoo Street (similar to Rally STR, come off the same fabric) or maybe the Dunlop Trailmax Mission or maybe the Conti TKC 70 Rocks. I already got the normal Conti TKC 70 and Michelin Anakee Adventure which were also fine tyres. Anyway keep up the good work!

Hi.I have been using metzeler sportec m5 on my 390 duke but am facing with wearing and chipping issues of tire over bad roads here in india in some patches.The only reason limiting me from switching otherwise is the calmness the m5 has over high speed sweeping corners.Can you suggest whether the scorpion rally str would be suited for all these??Never tried semi-offroad tires hence this curiosity.I beleive the pirellis would help me in the bad roads but what about corners and panic braking?

Hey mate- nice review and fuck me dead you sure love your cornering- just like me LOL - no chicken strips hahaha- well just letting you know your review match what I see elsewhere and for my riding style on my KTM 390 Adv these tires are what I want to have- I have had the TCK 70 which is what my bike came with and they are also excellent for OUR riding style and milage is very similar- I got 15000 out of the rear and that is riding hard two up and cornering on dry road was a dream- on the wet I am not crazy so same attitude- take it easy no matter what tires- off road the TCK 70's are no match for the Pirelli Scorpion but they do the trick for most light to medium off road stuff- wet grass and mud forget it though-- like most 70/30's I guess. I had the Mitas EO 7+ after the Continental TCK 70's and was disappointed in the wear as I only got 5000 out of the rear- which again was due to the fact I mostly ride on road and hard fully loaded- so I guess no big surprise to be fair- riding in the Philippines the roads are warm so that also did not help- I look forward to getting a set of the the STR's as my next tire of choice- thanks mate and ride safe cheers Jim
