I think it depends on what kind of riding you usually do.

Hmmm... Locally and M'sia highways. :confused:

Need to maintain correct pressures ma. Dry grip is compromised for longer life.

 

Anyone wants to buy a 50% used Mezeler SPortec M1 120/70 tyre? Nicely and evenly scrubbed to the edges, not squared off. :thumb:

ya la.. longer mileage at the expense of grip...

 

anyway don't think the pressure is the issue.. the warping is probably due to the design of the tyre threads...

Hmm, I experienced it with my 090 last time, and on my Impulse also.

 

I think it warps with disuse, cos when I got the bike, I started shredding the edges of the warped parts. A new tyre solves the issue.

e bt020 is e stock tyres for FZ1s in usa..bt14 is good but some ppl say will 'head-shake' when u close throttle at certain speed..Diablo,M1 n Z6 shd be good..just my humble opinion only :smile:

Touring tyres seem to distort more than sport tyres.

 

Maybe its the thread design? I notice the more "blocky" type seem to wear out faster than the more sporty ones with less thread. But its all these 'blocks" that makes the tyres warmup faster, so it grips immediately.

 

I still think its poor tyre pressure maintenance though. When I just got my Impulse, the tyres looked good. Once i pumped up the pressure (was very low), ride awhile, immediately shredded the tyres like dunno what. Super distorted, quite unstable at speeds....
