        Last time i checked, the price was around 13k for metz and 15 k for pirelli. It is better to stick with stock sizes considering the prices of 160/60

          Does anyone know the cost of Diablo Rosso ii 150 section tyre? I am looking to get a good rear tyre for my Duke 200.

            It was priced around 7.5k when I checked it couple of months back at Bangalore.

                  I'm getting Metzeler rear for 6800₹.
                  But the life would be again 10-11k hardly for my kind of riding.

                  My friends are using Michelin Street Pilot 2. 140 and 150 size tyres. They are claiming the life to be 20-21k easily. Though the grip is not like Metzeler's and we all know we have to compromise something.
                  I'm not doing track, I'm just riding it on streets & touring.

                  So where in Delhi can I find Michelin tyre for some discounted price ?

                    Metzeler on my duke lasted for 15k kms and on one of my friend's duke it lasted for 17k kms. Michelins surely will last for 20k kms.

                      Yea my friend used it for 15k on his Rc390 too.
                      But when you're revving insanely now & then and popping wheelies. The tyre will burn faster.

                            What are the options in the market available now a days for 90/90-17 or 100/80-17 front tyre for the 220 ?

                            Currently running a 80/100-17 Zapper of the CBR150, its almost at the end of its life.

                            I haven't used the stock Zapper FS front since 2009, but looks like that is the best option available in this size range.

                              Haha. You can go for Pirelli Sport demon (100/80-17) or Stock (90/90-17) or Michelin.

                              Rest you know what upsizing will do to handling and all.
                              But personally when I shifted back to both stock from both Pirelli sport demon. It was a happy story.
