I have Michelin Pilot Sport on mine, checked last night. Guess I am glad I didn't get Dunlops. Are what I got good tires???

 

hey onewheelin, I will PROBABLY take you up on that before long. But it'll be a month or so. Thanks tho bro!!!!!! And thanks EVERYONE for the info!!!!

 

Where is the cheapest place to get the powers at? Also how long do you think the michelin m4 will last on the street?

 

Hey dude ive ran the 208's on from stock to like 5000 miles on the rear and bout 7 on the front. I ran a shinko drag tire for my first rear tire cause i had it for another bike that got totaled out by a truck and i didnt last long. I am now runnin the Michelin Pilot Powers and if you like cornerin there awesome. I put my rear on yester day im almost at 9000 miles the fron has been on for like 2000 miles now. I went to some curves stait out the shop with the rear tire on yesterday and i took the tire all the way to the outside edge on a brand new tire and it just holds sweet. They are awesome tires but im not sure how long there gonna last but they hold the road like a dream come true.

 

Hey man go to this place i got a rear for 119.00 plus 15.00 for shippin then i took the rim off and to an independent shop and paid 8 bucks to install it. http://www.motoxoutlet.com/ This is the cheapes i could find except ebay but it was only 2 bucks diff and to ship it was gonna be 25 bucks. Thats for the pilot powers.

 

Im on an old army post in ny and some streets are slick and i still broke it loose today was amazed but i powerslide with the d208s but i agree the Pilot Powers are Awesome i rode an awesome road yesterday with a brand new rear and i should have been in leathers cause i was on it hard right away took like 40 miles to get to the road then i hit it hard but it stuck to the pavement like a champ. Ive come almost to scrubbin the arrow and the tire dude on the front tire when i was runnin a drag tire and that was just a turn gettin into work and i put the rear all the way to the outside edge on the left. Since i put these tires one its just handled so much better i just need to set my suspension up from the stock and i seen lots of knee draggin but it will have to wait for the next warm weather if im here for it cause its bout to get cold and nasty here. I wish i was back in Texas so i can ride year round. Enjoy your tires i know im gonna enjoy mine. [sm=goodidea.gif][sm=icon_cheers.gif][sm=trust_me.gif][sm=groupwave.gif]

 

m1 sportecs suck... they are good for a while, but then they start to harden, and crack pretty fast.. after a few months / cpl k's on them.. maybe thats only here in vegas though...

plus they are a harder compound on than the pilots and are worse... pilots, only way to go.

 

Are the Michelin Pilot Sports a decent tire?? That is what I got stock on mine.

 

pirelli diablos.
