yes i saw that link too. the one set on ebay was only 185.00 shipped did you see that one?

i guess only way to tell is to get the set and try it out for ourselves right?

lets do it hehe.

the shop I work in, one of the local drag racers was talking about these today but I was too busy to realy listen to what he was saying. so I know that there are people out there that use them.

I was thinking about this one. Shinko 009 Raven. I know, it's not the tire most would put on this bike but I mostly use mine as a commuter and tire life is more important to me.

These tires are the best bang for the buck.:clap They are super stickey and alot off the drag racers are useing them with great results. To save money I plan to order 3 or 4 at a time from Brock or Schnitz over the winter. My last tire was 300.00 clams!:angry

I bought the sport tour tire, working good for what I use the bike for.

I pulled this up from Schnitz Racing web page:

Like the "old school" Yokohoma tires.
They are some good dragracing tires. They have a good range of compounds. (but notice the 168 mph limit for street)

 

[06ZX-10R]

doesn't mean they are bad, how many times can you go above 168 MPH on the street anyway?

 

[raized1199]

:headscratch :dunno
Once or twice a week?
Just kiddin!
(but notice the 168 mph limit for street.......ANYWAY)
:smile
