      • hey fellow P150ians ... my friend wants to get his P150s rear tyre changed ...
        i suggessted him MRF zapper for his bike with the stock size .
        but he wants a fatter rear tyre ... so i adviced he can bump 10 frm the stock size... he is ok with it now.
        i want to know which is the best tyre for P150 and cost and size of the same tyre ??

        should he go for a fatter one [i know there will be a performance drop with mileage issue and handling will go fr a toss] ?

          • Hi, I have a question.
            What is the air pressure which is to be maintained on the front and rear for
            Bike: Karizma
            Rear Tire: Michelin M45, 4"
            Front Tire: Michelin M62 Gazelle, 3.75"
            The tire pressures mentioned on the tires say "for Canada and USA only"

              As a general rule for all vehicles including motorcycles, please follow manufacturer's pressure recommendation even if the tyres are not the same as OEM size.

                • Looking for a Front Tubeless tyre for my P150 UG3. Alloy wheel.
                  original tyre was MRF Zapper 2.75X17 tube type.
                  Had been running on MRF Zapper FS 90/90X17 tube-LESS since last one year.

                  time to replace that. but MRF doesn't have stock of FS tubeless.

                  any good option in Michelin?
                  looking for Tubeless tyre only.

                  good grip for cornering, leaning, wet/ dry grip for pune weather.

                  I am into moderate touring. running around 2-3K KMs a month.
                  include some offroading and loads of GHATs.. and NH4..

                  Thanks in Advance.

                    I'm sorry Mr.Lal, but the tire mentions 42Psi for max payload of some 300kilos.
                    I am running my tires with 33Psi for Rear and 25Psi for the front.

                    • Rear tyres for FZ16

                      I have visible cracks running everywhere in my FZ's rear tyres.
                      Can someone recommend a non-stock rear tyre with the cost? Google didn't help. I want something that has good grip (duh!) especially when cornering and riding on bad roads. My budget is flexible and am looking for tyres in Chennai.
                      If you have action shots, that would be awesome as well!

                      I read this http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/universa...tml#post161415 but unfortunately doesn't have much in terms of pictures.

                          Go for rear R15 tire for around 1400Rs MRF brand 100/80mm,MRF Zapper C or try IRC if available in Lucknow...

                          Why have you chosen so heavy jumbo size tire for your ride,mind you if you put these configuration on your bike your bike performance will be killed.
                          For 17" rims

                          Front 90/90 is more than good
                          Rear 120/80 or 130/80 is enough
