Re: Tyres

That's because of some contacts.
I don't know what's the price normally,
But I can definitely help you to get it for 500-1000₹ if you are located in Delhi NCR. (Chances are you might get it delivered at your doorstep too).

Re: Tyres

I am looking for front tyre replacement for my CBR250R...Please suggest some dual purpose tyres.
I am using Vee rubber off road tyre for rear.

Re: Tyres


Buy the Michelin pilot 120f and 150r i am using for my Duke 200 and they offer good grip

Re: Tyres

I need 120 and 160 dual sport 17 inch tyres. What are my choices? Vee rubber Delhi is non responsive though they stock these tyre sizes internationally. They would probably be my first choice.

This is for a versys 650.

R15 V1 - Front Tyre

Hello xBhpians

Thanks Admin for approving my user

My First Post

I've been on the lookout for Yamaha R15 V1 Front tyre for quite some time now.
The default front tyre, 80/90 - 17 MRF Zapper, is nowhere to be found :-/

I've searched far and wide for this - Bengaluru JC Road, Hosur Road, Kerala, and even few MRF dealers.
None of the stores had any tyre of this size. Also, MRF dealers mentioned that MRF have stopped producing tyres of this size.

This was the case when I had to replace my rear tyre as well.

Planning for a trip to Goa soon. Need to get it replaced the front tyre before that.

Can anyone please point me in the direction for getting the above mentioned size tyre, preferably in Bengaluru

Any help in this regard is highly appreciated.

Re: R15 V1 - Front Tyre

Welcome to xBhp!
Your dealer was right. v1 tyre sizes are no longer available (fresh stock) and you shall have to make do with v2 tyres. I will make the front a little nose heavy though.

Re: R15 V1 - Front Tyre

Thank you

Apart from being little nose heavy, will it have any impact on the bikes handling, performance, mileage, etc?

Re: Tyres

For how much time tyre can be stored safely?
Getting good deal so thinking to get tyre and use it after year.

Re: Tyres

If you rate v1's front tyre as 10/10, then v2 tyre would be 8/10 in most aspects.

Depends on how old the tyre is, when bought. Rubber becomes hard and useless by the end of 4 years. If you buy a new tyre (~4 to 8 months old), you can store it for a year and use it later for a couple of years.

HELP!!! changing Glamour Tube tyres to tubeless

hello, I bought a hero glamour, 6 months back and and since then I have suffered severe pain and problems with tyre punctures. Once got stuck 20kms away from home with no one to help at night at 2:00 am and had to ride the bike home in puncture condition which was dangerous and also had to replace the tube for rs 300.

Hence, I thought of replacing the tubed tyres with tubeless ones. So, today I went to a shop to replace the tyres. however, the owner told me that i can obviously change the tyres and put tubeless on them, but it is not recommended. Because, although the rims are alloy, they are not made for tubeless tyres as the rim does not come with prefixed nozzle. Although they can attach nozzle to the rim, but there are chances of air leakage and it will not be as good as a stock tubeless wheel. He also told me that it is risky and if I want to change the tyres, i would need to change the rim also to tubeless rims. the guy seemed legitimate and suggested me get more info before replacing the tyres.

so, can i change the tyres and go tubeless with out any problems to be faced in future? and is it safe?

Although it may sound silly, but is it better to sell this bike and get one with tubeless tyres pre installed with tubeless rims?


and if it is ok to replace the tyres on this bike, the stock tvs tyres that came with the glamour are

front - 2.75x18- 42p/4 pr *both tyre sizes are from maxabout.
rear - 3.00x18- 52 p/6 pr.

but the tyre size of the tubeless ones (michelin) are 80/100- 18 47 p.

are the sizes of the tyres same??


sorry for a long and confusing post if it is. and thank you for your replies.

I travel a lot, sometimes at night on unavoidable work purposes and go to dangerous roads/places, where normally there are no humans around 10-20 kms. And this "WHAT IF" puncture issue is seriously bothering me.

Re: Tyres

Oh...okay.

I guess I have no other option.

Thank you
