all motoworkshop got sell tyres, its a matter of whether they got the particular brand or size u wan, their pricing also another matter, but a little difference only.

 

dunlop TT900 is best for distance, size is 90/80 is suitable.

 

battlax bt39 for corning, size is 90/80, 110/70 (if u wan big rear tyres).

 

these are my opinon, i not sure what others use.

dun start shooting me, thanks:sian:

 

anyone using different tyre sizes?

 

im using 80-80 & 90-80

still enough for light cornering so far. can see that i dont really use the edges of the tyres as the color strips that came fresh w/ the tyres still look fresh to me after 2weeks of usage.

if u travel long distance etc everyday use expressways, use dunlop better.

the size u using is just right.

hi firstly must thanks uncle lim for all his effort for teaching us the diy way of changing the bulb thanks uncle lim so three of us have change to the white bulb liao and is really brighter then the stock ones for those who still want to change i think u can still go to uncle lim shop to get it as he will be away on mon but still can buy from his wife k it really a lesson learn

[thisisme]

for tye wise i using bt39 both front and rear is $150 so far very good loh even in rainny days still good to run but if dry and hot they are powerful grip wise rate it at 9.5 .the size is front 90/80(17) rear 110/80(17) the rear that the biggest it can go cos the bike shop say our rim that the biggest

 

try b4 tt900 but can feel the big different in bt39 the felling is totally different hat all from my own point of view

 

and for tyre wise try to change in singapore cos u might get aftermarket tyre else where

[thisisme]

fell down at republic avenue as i was going to marina square. wore jeans and jacket, so not much abrasions. unfortunately did not wear gloves as they were wet from previous day, so right hand kena abrasion. stood up, check myself, thought ankle sprain. push bike to pavement, took cab see doctor. doctor noticed ankle swollen, so go see NUH. NUH x-ray, saw cracked fracture, so now i in cast for a couple of weeks. bike already towed back by bikebulance. bike can power up, cosmetic damage, and i suspect front fork damage also. will see again when my cast is off. i'm paranoid of the rain now. i've got rain-phobia.

Went very well, though there were only 4 of us: me, uncle lim, thisisme, lazy1000. Had some difficulty DIY-ing but managed to fit the bulbs at last. The halogen bulbs are much better than stock ones. Thanks uncle lim!

 

Btw lazy1000, u can pm ivikarazi for the rim sticker ---> http://www.singaporebikes.com/forums/showpost.php?p=3389441&postcount=31

i always wanted to change the tyres to bigger size ones...

i feel like the original tyres are too small, hence not very stable when cornering

any idea where i can get it done?

 

thanks guys...

 

JB got Dunlop tires. All half price. haha. i'm going to change next month maybe.

Zed, its sad to hear that you've encountered with a mishap. Wish you for a speedy recovery.

 

Don't worry about the bike. I'm sure the guys from the forum will offer you their expertise to get your bike back in shape. Take care.

[Wankidal]

Anyway guys my insurance thingy is settled. Thanks all for the advice.

 

Oh ya do you think i've having problem cornering cause my fork is too low?

 

One more thing, i feel like putting alarm on my bike ley. Any opinions on that?
