I searched out this thread for Fz's tyres and didnt find much, hence posting a query here.
I am currently using the stock tyres on my FZ-16. 16000 kms done, I am looking for a rear tyre coz this one has become a victim of shoddy roads and even shoddier puncture repair (vulcanization) jobs.
I dont have much complains from the stock ones (the treads are still quite deep, but maybe they are just chicken stripes - the centre never really had any good treads.. see my profile pic) but still, while I have here an opportunity to change my tyre, I was thinking of looking at all the options available. Then I would decide which one suits my needs best and obv which one wouldn't blast too big a hole in my pocket.
I want to keep the tyre specs as stock as possible - dont really want a change in the feel of the bike in terms of height and FE.
Stock specs - 140/60 MRF Revz 17"
Usage:
Office rides mostly. The road consists of about 10 km of pathetic pot holed surfaces and surfaces made of huge stones 10-12 cms across trapped in erstwhile wet mud which has now dried.. I hope I was able to explain it. The rest is 13 kms of good road.
Other Requirements:
Decent wet hold
Something grippy on dry smooth roads would help.. dont want to washout on corners...
Thank in advanceHelp plz...
In the meantime, I checked out Pirellis on their site, and saw the Sport Demon (140/70) and MT75 (140/70). Among the two, I thought MT75 would be a better fit - decent dry and wet grip with longer life than the Sport Demon, hard enough for some good city riding.
Any other suggestions from Bridgestone etc? I browsed around thr site but only found car tyres.

Some pics of Pilot Sporty 100/90-18 TL tyre on my RTR. Got it abt 2 weeks back. have done close to 800kms on it. Its better than my previous 110/80-18 TL Veerubber in every aspect execpt for dry grip. Vee Rubber lasted only for 18k kms. Have'nt tried serious cornoring on Sporty though.
M45 4.00 No way that am gonna put this on my RTR. May be 3.50 in future
