the rear WILL make a difference, bu the front is gonna make a way bigger difference


I ride the shittiest rear tires ever no problem

but a SLIGHTLY cupped front tire and your bike rides like ***

 

I like it cuz it has a lower profile so I dont feel like I have to run as low of an air pressure. AND, it digs into the twisties. It handles way more bad *** than it did stock... then again, Battalax SUCK *****! and the Shinko front heats up QUICK. I can leave the house and lift the *** at the stop sign without worrying about locking the front. Grabby little *******. and cheap too.

DAMNIT! WHY AM I NOT GETTING PAID TO SAY THIS ****! SHINKO? CAN YOU HEAR ME?? PAY ME!!!!!!!

 

whatever you don't run lower profile tires then stock!!

When you flip your bike your rim can smack the ground and bend it


And everyone talks about battlelax as trash, but imo they aren't TOO BAD... It's no pilot power, but I ran a set of bt 014's for a whole season and I liked them

 

Profile is a bad choice of words. Lean angle? Maybe... its not as steep. Sidewall is still the same. And it compliments my matching front

 

aye I see, just making sure

 

+1

 

ethiopian u ride streets at all or got any good spots down there? Melbourne blows ******* and no one to ride with here i rode to vero last sunday cause i was bored as ****

 

I ran a 200 back in sept in charlotte absolutely loved it for rippin highway wheelies, handling blew ******* but i never got any tire wiggle when doing wheelies on 85, and the highway patrol that pulled me over for rockin a 4 mile wheelie steady at 55 on i85 will back me up on that lmao, apparently i was "holding traffic up" but he was cool, never gave me a ticket and told me where i could go wheelie, one of few cops that i have respect for...

 

I wish but no streets for me anymore unless I move out of Florida got a couple shitty circle spots and a decent night spot in port St. Lucie, hit up fuzzynutz he lives in Melbourne and I know of a really good spot in palm bay but since no one there rides I just go to Orlando every weekend.

 

Lemme know when your goin to orlando next... im down to chill and learn some new stuff.. im squiddin it in the lots, lol... Just bought an 02 f4i to get off teh streets lol.. But like i said im down for whatever man and old man willie told me i cold come to o-town and chill at some spots just havent gotten around to gettin there and dont really have a way to get the bike there besides ridin it, and -1 +7 on my 929 blows *** on the highway... lol

 

hey i figured out the answer to my problem!! it ended up actually being my rear tire i put on a new supre corsa 180 and it solved the whole problem
