ZX10R tyres
      #28163 - 19/06/2008 12:00

Hi folks,

can anyone offer a recommendation (for tyres) for an 06 Zx10R. I do road riding but no touring. I do ride in all weathers though.

Cheers

Pilot Power 2ct, Diablo Corsas or Qualifier RRs are a safe bet for sticky road or Pilot Road, Diablo Rosso, Qualifier or BT016 for road.

I'm using 2CTs at the moment. I don't know whether the profile is different to the original Pilot powers but the turn in seems a little slower although more settled once it is over. That could just be 'cos my old ones were shagged though.

They are my first choice although I haven't tried everything. If it ain't broke don't fix it is my thinking.
