I've searched all over the site and have seen the various opinions on tires. From all of that it really looks like the one that's tried and true for price, durability, performance are the Shinko 712's. Some time in the next few years (sarcasm), I want to have my xs back together as a cafe style bike. Here's my thoughts for tires:
Shinko 712 Motorcycle Tire
- Front, Tubeless, 4-Ply, 19, Tire, 100/90-19, Bias Ply, Blackwall, H
- Rear, Tubeless, 4-Ply, 18, Tire, 110/90-18, Bias Ply, Blackwall, H
My rims won't run tubeless (spoked wheels) without work, so I was going to get tubes for these as well. I read multiple threads that the 100/90 and 110/90 are good for handling, etc.
Any strong opinions that this is the WRONG way to go?
Thanks as usual!
