Default Replace My Rear Tyres for New One of p220

Hi All,

My bike has clocked more than it should be to replace the Tyres. I want to go for fatter rear tyres in my current alloy. If it is not possible, suggest me good alternatives. I am open to replace rear alloys as well. One more question, can the Disc break be attached to it......

I dont want to sell my bike for now, as I am totally satisfied with it..............

Pulsar 150 DTS-i UG2

Pls suggest...........

Thanks

Go for the FZ16's 140/60 tyre...its a direct fit onto the bike!

It looks fat enough and performance is also pretty good!

I am sure the FZ tire would touch the inner side walls of the swing arm of the P150 UG2.

Go for Zapper Vyde 120/80 -17.

Or Dunlop Geo-Cruiser 120/80, I'm not sure if it is available in 17&18".

....Praful are you sure...?

I doubt

And if et all even a 120 fits into it, he would have to do away with the chain guard...!

I think Praful thought he had a 220.

And you are right. Even for a 120 to fit, change guard needs to be removed. The scissors of the bike is pretty narrow.

Zapper vyde is your best bet . else go for other thai tyres . they are good too .

you can go for the rear tyre of the R-15 i.e zapper s . it is an excellent tire i am using it for 6 months now . never looses grip no matter how hard it is pushed into corners .
