there is no such thing as "best" tyre. a good tyre would be one that suits your need. for example, if u only ride at 50km/h on straights and corner at 15km/h, then any cheap, botak, dead tyre will do. if u are like me take corner at 100km/h, then i'd certainly prefer (and need) the grip that bt39ss can offer. it is wat u want of the tyre that determines whether it is good for u or not. one man's medicine can be another's poison.

 

as for michelin / pirelli / continential / metzelder / etc., they are more suited for bigger, heavier bikes with higher speed. do u think a wave can sufficiently warm up a michelin gold standard until it grips?

[lihsheng]

icic.. thanks..

learned something..

[AspMonK]

ayia..

 

even our wave riders have tried TT900 on Track..

 

Cornering at 100km/h is nothing... it depend how deep is the bend, most impt.

 

so far.. still enough grips for wave weight.

 

Anyway, if u hav spare $$... battlax is woth spending

[lihsheng]

so u mean tt900 at jb de can use?

[flykite]

i have heard good reviews of the thai TT900 from JB... it seems to grip well. oh well, personally i used tt900gp on my sp before and i have no faith in it. that is why i am an ardent battlax supporter. no, i only support bt39ss. the other battlaxs sucks.

Anyway, there's no diff where u purchase e tyres as long u still buy TT900 instead TT900 GP.

u mean BT-014...etc ?

 

it depend wat purspose u intend to use, as for Touring...and street race.

 

Althought their name are the same but diff model and COMPOUND.

 

Battlax have Sport/Touring, dont mistaken they onli built for race.

[axn85]

i am using the tt900gp the tyre is good wat... a few times the bike almost kiss the floor... lucky the tyre "eat" the floor... i dunnoe about ur tyre... but my are good...

[flykite]

ok lah i mean TT900GP on my sp. wave i dont know. anyway, for my need, the other battlaxs sucks. that is for my need... other pple have other needs mah rite? but i feel the other battlaxs don't grip well enough.
