... come, come, come... give me your hamaya... and I'll show you how an R1 is ridden!! You can't even catch me when I'm on a S4 in NSH... If I can ride Mag's bike, I can ride yours too (can someone fetch me a stool?) ... question is whether I want or not...

 

come to think of it, I have not ridden any other sports bike than FiFi. Busa and Beemer "S" bikes are not pure sports, so not counted.

michelin pilot sports.......on my bike i feel its ok.....went track......decent traction/stability at high speed......but loses grip when too heated up.....that time PG,i did a 30mins non-stop run inside did 10+laps last lap i feel the rear sliping under hard accleration thats when i decided i have to pit in liao......as for why 30mins 10+ laps only cos i run out of track 1 time into the bmw.....had a hard time coming out from there.....then come out have to wait for bikers to clear b4 i can proceed back to the track......

[Bluesky]

wah so direct ah I feel the tyre usage might be cause by the riding style too i.e. hard braking...Do u think the softness of the suspension will affect how long the tyre last as well?? I might be wrong. What you guys think??

Tyre pressure? Did you constantly maintain it at the optimum PSI?

 

If not then could be the 'load to bike' ratio liao

:box:

 

wah so direct ah I feel the tyre usage might be cause by the riding style too i.e. hard braking...Do u think the softness of the suspension will affect how long the tyre last as well?? I might be wrong. What you guys think??

 

I think its because I never maintain the PSI of the tyres.. Pump once every 5 weeks or so onli.. What to do? Sianzz liao tyre got one patch..

tires arh...

 

no comment, as long dun crash with ur tires is good tires.... even my tyres is out of shape for a peroid of time... i did not crash....so if your tires is out of shape.....den better ride slower and more careful......

 

what i have learn in stamford tyres about tires compound....

 

 

check ur air pressure every 2 weeks, as air escape throught micro holes, this will also maximise the lifespan of your tires.

 

tyres life span 15,000 km or 3years...whichever comes first.

 

warm up ur tires before playing corner....hard compound will normally take 20 mins, soft compound 10 mins.

 

Do take note of the side profile of tires.... example 210/55/17

 

55 is the side wall sizing.... the higher it is... the more comfy it is.... but less grip...

 

so if u wan to play corner, look for tyres with lower profile like 210/40/17(example) more grip and lesser life span.

 

i also dun know what tires i am using but bridgestone.... its good... just dun use dunlop! yucks!

[Devilsown]

come to think of it, I have not ridden any other sports bike than FiFi. Busa and Beemer "S" bikes are not pure sports, so not counted.

 

FIFI is pure sports meh? tot Manz said tat is also a sports tourer?

FIFI position is similar to VFR also leh....comfy

[Devilsown]

... come, come, come... give me your hamaya... and I'll show you how an R1 is ridden!! You can't even catch me when I'm on a S4 in NSH... If I can ride Mag's bike, I can ride yours too (can someone fetch me a stool?) ... question is whether I want or not...

 

chao ride faster with S4 than his busa....

 

so does it mean Honda is faster? hee hee....... but really..... he is very fast on S4.....

[Manzz]

FIFI is pure sports meh? tot Manz said tat is also a sports tourer?

FIFI position is similar to VFR also leh....comfy

 

fifi is similar to busa.. not very sporty as 06R6 but also not as comfy as vfr.. somewhere in between..

2. BT021 - Mileage (for front tire only) = 11,000km to 12,000km with 70/30 rider-pillon and 60/40 city-highway. Front wears off first. Touring = 2.5; Street Sport = 4; value for $$ = 3.5

 

3. BT020 - Excellent mileage. 15,000- 20,000KM.

I did abt 14,000km, 75/25 highway with 2 trips, (including C to C), quite a no of high speed blast and hard acceleration. Had to change cause hit a nail and patch kept leaking, but good for another few thousand km.

Touring = 4.5; Tyres are stable for high speed and good grip on dry weather. Wear is more substantial when blasting at high speed.

Street Sport = 3.5; Grip and Cornering is gd, could never fully use the whole contour of the tyre. Definitely better than BT021 anytime. (Never tried soft compounds or sport tyres so cant compare the difference)

Value for $$ = 4; It was one of the cheaper tyre with more mileage for rear 190 tyres. But I think already no longer in production.

 

4. Micheline Pilot Sport - Mileage = tba. Touring = tba; Street Sport = tba; value for $$ = (Zai pls comment)

 

5. Micheline Pilot Power - Mileage = tba. Touring = tba; Street Sport = tba; value for $$ = 2(Chao to comment)
