I understand everyone has a budget, but these things just might not be the thing to save bucks on. Still, like everyone else Kidd you have a choice, and if you decide to get them I wish you the best of luck.
The owner of full Bore states "We are the first Motorcycle tire company that manufactures and retails our own tires. We are factory direct. No middle men means no mark up. We do not compromise any quality when we make our tires. Same great quality without the huge price tag. No salesman, No distributors, No big retail stores = low prices to our customers." |

Personally, I would not spoon one onto a bike I'm selling, much less riding. |

Thanks, yeah best deal I have found is $102 currently shipped, had hoped to save a few bucks and get as priced on ebay for 90 shipped but none available. Now I have found a Supersprox Steel alternative at $44, full steel sprocket being their RFE 489 41T , it will carry a bit more weight and not be as sexy looking but it is a cheaper option. I passed on the Full Bore tires and went another route. cheers |

 This is the old one one top the new one. $40+shipping if you're interested. |

Tires may not be the latest or greatest price to good to pass up for a set. Was trying to find a Supersprox RST 489 41T rear sprocket but none on fleabay, would make new chain and sprocket cost very cheap and set me up for a while

Wow! $154 for a set? They don't have the higher speed rating https://www.motosport.com/full-bore-...ort-tire-combo |

| Hammerhead | Never heard of Full Bore tires. Likely they are recaps as the machinery to make a tire carcass is waaaayyyy expensive and the molds to make recaps are not. |

ZX14 w Full Bore M1 Looking for feedback on the Full Bore M1 tires fitted to an 08 ZX14 . They are damn cheap and I know the old addage, you get what you pay for. First of all I don't ride in rain unless caught in it and if so would possibly find a place to sit it out if so. At 150 shipped I am damn tempted to try them due to cost savings, reviews seem to be decent with some complaints comparing to much higher end tires Found some Roadsmart II's on clearance (good enough for me) w the rear in a 190/50 vs sticking with the 55 series but heck for $182 shipped I am just gonna go for the savings, It will be a decent comparison once I wear out the PR 3's w the 190/55 on rear since the bike is new to me and I found it freakish at low speed to how it just falls in to the point it was a bit odd first driving the bike. My Blackbird does not give me same feeling with a 180/55 but I do notice I feel like I am sitting much lower on the ZX Any and all feedback is welcomed and I would buy the 190/50 for savings as I don't think it will be as big of a deal to me sacrificing quicker tip in. Thanks |
