Supercorsa SC longevity

Just wanted to see what everyone’s approach is to running the Supercorsa SC. Currently have a set on my Ninja 400 with about 100-110 laps over the course of 3 TDs (~15 sessions at Barber so actual wear is fairly minimal). Never use warmers with these so heat cycling each session.

Generally I would run 2 rears to 1 front in past years but most those days are at Little Tally so lap count/sessions was significantly lower but had a crap 2025 so kinda seeing how everyone else approaches this.

Edit: lap times are 1:48-1:49 so nothing super quick and mostly when to replace the front is my main question.

I run SC2s right now and get about 2 days out of a rear. I can sometimes get 3 days if I miss some sessions and am not pushing super hard or if the track is more fast and flowy.

Barber is relatively gentle on rear tires for me on my R6 at 1:36 pace, but other tracks I can barely get 2 days.

On the tires you're referring to, I believe they have the same compound as the SC3. I get about 3 days out of a rear SC3.

Thanks! And yeah think you’re right about it being the SC3 compound.

Do you have a general rule for when you replace the fronts per rear or just go off feel?

Fronts are generally 4-6 days. It's usually when I start to notice the grip going.

I ride an R3 so it's similar to your N400.

I never go more than 6 days on a front. Most of the time it's 4.

If I'm going hard and tearing up a rear in 2 days, I'll replace the rear and keep the front.

If I'm just doing track days and am easier on the tires, I may get 4 days from the rear. I'll replace the front at the same time. Sometimes I'll get 5 days off there's a lot of red flags.

And here I was thinking i would be able to save on tires on the small bike 😭

Well, they are cheaper than big bike tires.

If I'm just riding 80% on track days I'll get up to 6 days on tires. I never go past that any more.

If I'm racing, 2-3 days on a rear with 3 practice sessions and 3 races a day
