The problem with ah boy is the quality.. Small things buy from them still can.. Important stuff like tires better dun.. The installation might be bad and the tires maybe old (tat's my own experience). Might as well spend a bit more to get a pair of fresh tires and fixed at a reputable bike shop.. It's definitely worth the money..

Hi, I ve just changed both Spec III tires to Michelin Pilot - 160/60 ® & 120/60 (F). I believe I got great offer from both of these tires @ $260. I feel that most of the tires that within specification are ok.

Below is a copy of brochure2008 on Michelin tire. Cheers & happy riding!!

No idea how true there is..... even "aixin" found a similar website from Michelin oso mentioned their pilot road 2 is no.1 ..... ....

 

But i found from the brocher aixin attached... the comparison is in 2006...and the tyres used is Michelin Pilot Road 2 120/70-17 180/55-17.....

 

i will be going down tonight if i dun need to work OT.. rainy season.. dun want to take any risk esp when it comes to tyres and brakes..
