Can't say for sure, some experienced mech needs to see your plugs to tell you that.

Finally he agreed with me after showing him ravikiran tractor's pic

I've done about 330 kms on that tyre since sat evening and all in all I can say its a pretty awesome tyre.

Dry Grip - Very Good (As good as Vyde)
Wet Grip - Awesome (maybe even better than Vyde)
Offroad Grip - muhahahaha *evil grin*

Cornering - I did not find any issues with putting the bike into a corner, it definitely was not flickable as the Vyde, but its not much slower than it too.

Braking - Earlier my Front/Rear brake distribution was 80/20 %, now its 60/40 %

Engine Performance - Acceleration has noticably dropped by a bit, but the the feeling of rush of torque is still there. But the best part of this tyre is it has made the bike taller geared. Its now doing 5kph more at the same RPM. 100kmph now come at ~6.8K rpm

Verdict Till now - If you tour long distances on places where roads or no roads are there, then this is definitely the tyre for you. Else the Vyde is still very very Good!

No fishtailing while braking like that?

And the only pther question that remains to be asked is, how many kms does it last? Since its a soft compound, off-roading tire i believe it wear faster on GQ runs.

Also you got this from Hyd right?

Din't lock the rear tyre, but did double use of the rear brakes and no fishtailing till this point. Anyways fish tailing would not happen on a new set of tyres..

Life for this tyre would be about 20K.

Yup, got it from Hyd.
