It's Tire Time.
Ok,
So I know you all have Leads/websites/Connections so I need a Set of tires for the start of the season...And I mine as well buy them now so I can get the bike all ready to go for when the weather breaks. I have the Original Front Tire on there now Which was the BT 016 OEM Tire and I replaced the Rear for a Dunlop Qualifier Before last years rally...And got about 5,000 Out of that tire...The front has a little over 10k and isnt completly done but its time to change it just so I have fresh matching tires. I was gonna go with the BT 002's...Or the Dunlop D220's. The cheapest I found the BT 002's for was 134 for the rear and 99 for the front and the Dunlops were 125 for the rear and 60 for the front. And I know that one is a Sport TOuring and the others are more of a supersport racing tire...So ill also take feedback on which ones you prefer. Im leaning towards the dunlops b/c i dont Ride that aggressive in jersey...I only ride aggressive when I go to the rally and a few trips to Pa and Md. Thanks |
I am kinda partial to the michelins and like the pilot powers, used em on track and street and did well for me on both. I may get a few sets of 003's for the track bike and will need new rubber for the futura, the rear is starting to flatten out a bit and dont want to go through last years stress of will my tire make it down there.
I would check out SW moto and sport bike track gear for the michelins |
stay away from the d220s unless you want a shitty tire
There is a conti that might fit your needs. I don't remember the name, I will get it and hit this thread back up. |
Conti Road Attacks and Avon Storms
I would take a look at those before you go with a D220. |
Cycle Gear has the BT016s on the cheap right now. You can get a set shipped for like $245. 120/180 combo. I love 'em, and I came from Pilot Powers. Currently on my second set of 016s.
http://www.cyclegear.com/spgm.cfm?L1...=TUC_30-1263_G Michelin's latest and greatest are the Pilot Pure. Supposed to be lighter and outperform the 2CTs. Google 'em for prices. |
This place is generally pretty good with their pricing...
