Hi,

Could you please let me know what is best upsize for Pulsar 180 UG IV,

the current mrf zappers are hopeless and not building confidence when i do 90+ i have decreased tyre pressure to 28front/30rear lot of time but its the same.

Does pirelli/any other brand can can give good road grip?

The UG4 has 90/90-17 front and 120/80-17 rear if i am not wrong. Company recommends 28f and 30r. Try reducing the pressure by 2 psi, it should help. Or else shift to Pirelli SD or Michelin Sirac

Even RTR180 has 90/90-17 front... and the company recommends 25psi

They both have different tyre makes and the two bikes have a weight difference of 10 kgs. n Pulsars are known to be front heavy too, resulting in the higher tyre pressure recommendation.

Hi when i enquired for Pirelli for my P200 in coimbatore i was quoted Rs.4400 (4100 for tyre and 300 for fitting)

Don't know if this is the best price.

Hi Vasu,
Stick to the specifications bro. They have given enough rubber already.
Upsizing will improve looks but will give harsh ride (I have experienced).
I believe Zappers are reliable for our conditions comparatively.
I have seen other brands do not take the beating as much as zappers.
IRCs sustain but grip levels are lower than MRFs (my opinion). Pirelli are soft compound tyres(Correct me), i doubt if they will last even 20K kms for our conditions. I would try considering Michelin, but they have in 18" only is it?
