Avoid Dunlop TT5 and TT9 - tayar can kembang and harden and crack.
Avoid VIVA & FKR - very lasting with little grip.

Can try Maxxis, DURO Taiwan, FDR (Indo). Maxxis and DURO also make racing compound tyres.

Brands heard before but not familiar: Michiyama, Swallow, Shinko (Korea), Unilli aka Acme...

Currently using Pilot Sporty and Farrelli.

Tyre size should match with rim size.
110/70 need at least 2.15.
*
if not mistaken Michiyama is sport series for Farelli.

what size is ur Pilot Sporty? how much & where u get it?

i'm using RB sport rim..if not mistaken 1.85 for the rear..

@anep: No need, like Cheang said... For the rear tyre, check if it has something like 90/80R. If got "R", means rear tyre only.

@shawal: I got them at Tokico Penang, RM110 front, RM185 rear. This was last year. Should be cheaper now. 1.85 should be good with 100.

Battlax should last 6~8000km. If the tyre botak and square, that means the rider not extreme rider, can go for cheaper tyre liao.
Road tyre can probably go up to 10000km. I'm still measuring my Pilot, rarely use.

Pilot Sporty traction is 6 dry and 6 wet, out of 10, rated by Michelin themselves. Michiyama is racing compound of Farelli, that's right. IRC is Inoue Rubber Co (Japan), another OEM tire for LC next to VIVA (according to the service manual), and its made by FKR Malaysia, kinda like their racing compound also. So far the Goldwing also quite good. The mat EX5 in Penang would use Dunlop TT100 or the IRC Goldwing. I would give MA-3D a try too. Aaron is the main user here...


Added on November 15, 2010, 1:34 pmI use Farrelli becoz cheap, ~RM60 only. Just RM5 more than VIVA. The bunga is rough good for rainy weather. Looking at some old photographs of racing bikes, they actually use this type of sotong tyre last time. biggrin.gif
*
thanks for the info bro..will survey the tyre in this few days..
i'm not an extreme rider but b4 this i travel batu uban<-->balik pulau almost everyday..
i need something that can make feel confident to layan corner..that's y i opt for battlax biggrin.gif
summore my dad also use it nod.gif

Glad you share. Got link to that forum page? It's what you paid for. MPS is ~RM100 and the bunga is semi slick. Wet/Dry traction is factory rated at 6/10... pandai pandai lah.
Not sure which Pirelli they talking about? MT75? I haven't tried looking in Penang. Want to know more about review from that forum you spoke of.
*
here is the link bro --> http://malaysianbikers.com.my/forum/index.php?topic=74413.0
the writer even note that mps should be avoided

if not mistaken they are talking about MT75..based on the link given smallest 90/80/17 for front and 100/80/17 for rear..
on my way back drop by at a workshop and ask the mech about tyre..he recommend me duro racing compound series..RM125 for 90/80 (if heard correctly biggrin.gif )..ask about pirelli he can order if really keen..

I want to order Amsoil for car and motorbike. Any Penang folks wana bulk order together? Amsoil 10W-40 motorcycle is about RM52. Market price is RM65+. It performs even better than Rock oil or Motul 300V from reviews. Interested please PM me.
*
bro charge, where do u want to get the oil from? online or sparepart shop?
got one website sell amsoil motorcycle for 50.50 per botle but xclude delivery..if not mistaken if buy 4 or more free delivery..
