Didn't have any pics to post when I said my welcome the other day and finally got some.

 

nice bike, what rear tire is that?

 

I know the front is a Michelin (IIRC) as I checked out the front last night as I was looking at the pads. The rear needs to be replaced and I'm going to get something cheap that will last some miles on the street as I bought the bike primarily to get to work and back, not to race anywhere.

 

i was just wondering because it kinda looked like a shinko! i love shinkos!

 

HEY COPY CAT! NICE BIKE!
Those look like Michelin Pilot Road tires...Had one brand new on my F2 with only about 600mi on it before I had to replace it due to a nail...Now sporting the Pilot Powers...

ahhh thats what it is..nice tire too!

 

still using the tank bra i took mine off when i bought the bike ruins the paint under itget a tank gaurd

 

the rear tire is actually a Michelin Macadam (OE Spec) annd the front is a bridgestone Battllax. (got them backwards)

I'm trying to figure out if I want a Battlax 020 for the rear or a Michelin Pilot Road. It's for commuting and will likely never see any track time, so long wear gets picked over stickiness.

The tank cover was on it when I saw it while my BIL was riding it. He took it off at some point and then put it back on when I got it. I saw a few minor scuffs on the tank before the bra was put back on, but I like it how it is.
