I need to buy some new tires for my project bike, any suggestions on which are best? Im planning on doing regular street riding, no racing or stunting. There are tons of tires and i dont know what to get?

 

try using the search button man... last three months theres been lots of posts on this topic.... ull come to find its very opinionated..

 

those cheap shinkos will work fine then

 

Uhm...I'm totally OK with ppl pinching pennies on a lot of stuff. But can you seriously say it's ok to pinch pennies on tires??? Listen man...go to www.motorcycle-superstore.com or www.compacc.com and pick up a set of Powers or 2CTs... they got prices and deals on tires that can only make you smile. I just received my tire from Motorcycle Superstore and I'm quite excited...

 

+1 on motorcycle superstore. Just bought a set of michelin 2cts for $221.98 with free shipping. Awesome tire that's well worth this price! Look good on my 01 F4i....and I don't do any track days or anything but I ain't grandma either, but I wanted a tire that I felt confident on..these definitely do the trick!

 

I had really good luck in the past with Dunlop tires, but they do wear out quickly. I got a set of brand new Shinkos for free which I'm going to rock for a little while.

 

Check out the Pirelli Angel ST. I plan on getting them. Great tire with great reviews.

 

Everyone likes different tires, so not sure how much help this will be but I use Continental Road Attacks. I usually only see them on heavier bikes like the vfr for example but I put 6k miles on mine so far and they are barely worn. I've ridden the dragon on them and they performed exceptionally well. Very inexpensive also.

 

Pilot pures. I'd make love to them if the holes were a little smaller [im big but not 17"! lol]

 

i went to my local shop, told them im building a bike and i want to try to stay exclusive to one place. He said ok well what type of things do you need. I told him my list he is hooking me up, well long story short he is hooking me up with some ct2 at cost
