Currently, Ihave the tubeless Zapper C 120x80/x17 fitted on my bike.
I think due to its size, my stability has gone for a toss

. So now I am planning to downgrade to a 100x80x17/110x90x70. Since there is dearth of 17 inch tyres though of getting the R15 tyre

.
My front tyre is default one.

Want to know:

1. If there will be change in the stability?
2. Will Acceleration improve?
3. Will mileage increase / decrease?

I am really just looking for stability more than anything else at the moment. If there are any other rear tyres I should look at please suggest!

stability; if you are meaning roadgrip while cornering and stuff, then there is loads of it. it literally sticks to the road. moreover you need to just flick the handlebar, no need of weight shifting n all.. you would be amazed by your cornering skills..

acceleration.. a definite yes! you will feel it the moment u fit it.
mileage increase... nothing for me till now... maybe a kilometer or two.. not much for me.

My thoughts exactly. I'd especially like to see the right, left and rear views of the tyre fitted to the P180 (or the P150 if your case be so). Please put up the pics if its not too much of a trouble.
Thanks in advance.

Where to find r15 rear tyre in pune

HELP !!! INFO !!!HELP !!! INFO !!!HELP !!! INFO !!!HELP !!! INFO !!!

I want to get R15 rear tyre for my P150.
Require pointers to a shop having them available in pune..

@undefineme3:

Excellent! Thanks a lot for the pics man. Those tyres seem to look quite good on your 'P150-Cross'

. Hey, is that a white mudguard you got there for the front wheel? Looks beautiful I'd say. I'd recommend painting the front shocks Matte-Black; that color looks awesome against white (you could also use vinyls to cover the shocks if you want, it's a really easy (& cheap) DIY job once you get the hang of it)

Umm.. if you wouldn't mind, would it also be possible for you to post a pic showing the rear end of the bike from either left or the right side? (Something like this: http://www.bikez.com/pictures/bajaj/...s-i_pus15c.jpg but showing just the rear end, not the whole bike) I just want to see how much of a difference the change in rear tyre makes to the height of the bike.

BTW, I liked your 'I've got a bold attitude' kinda sticker on the silencer. Must be a head-turner for sure (especially when you vroom around on it around town
Keep riding man!

yeah bro.. some paint schemes are up the sleeve... will surely try to paint the shocks black.. infact i also got to paint the whole engine too...

head turner.. "HELL YEAH!!"

Those tires look great on the bike, cant wait to put them on my p180, did you mount the tires directly to the rims or you have also put tubes inside. I really want to upgrade to tubeless tires, these R15 tires look just fine. How much did u pay for them both front and rear, i hope i can get them from Yamaha service center

**winzeee** · 08-28-2009, 01:20 AM

@undefine Thanks for the pics.Ur bike looks cool in white man.Good work

these tyres could not be directly mounted on the 150s alloys.. no idea on the 180 alloy though... yep, its got tubes inside them.... my alloys were not meant for tubeless....

front 950
rear 1550

these tyres are high on demand... if u've got known people, then its possible to get it from MRF in a week or so... or its a 2-3month wait!

Cool! This might have begun to sound patronizing by now, but I really like the bike. The color scheme is awesome. The tyres seem to complement the bike well. Nice ride.

Hey, I just noticed, what does the text on your silencer actually mean/say? "Louder than Go_"? What is the next letter after the last 'O'?

Anyone tried R15 tyres on Pulsar150 ??
