    Just as i changed to Michelin sporty!
    actuallly honda does suggest TVS tyres too.. if you u see the swing arm there is a sticker that mentions the tyre pressure.. it also has the type of tyres and there is MRF and TVS tyres listed there.

    • Are new tyres being provided in the new twister??? Can somebody post a pick of the new tyres?
      I would rather be riding my bike thinking of God, than sitting in the temple thinking of my bike.

        HONDA provides tvs tyres on stunner if you don't ask for mrf zappers.
        and the question remains why do i race?
        every finishing line is the begining of a new race.

                When i took my bike way back in 2010 i asked for some other Tyre but the Showroom provided MRF only which comes widout the midrib.
                Should have stressed on it, because that tyre is real poor during emergency breaking.

                Anyways i'm now happy with my Michelin sporty.

                  twister's rear tyre is skinny ,so panic braking can be scary sometimes if not balanced properly.

                  • Ok sorry my bad, I heard somewhere that Honda was providing new tyres on the twister. Well I guess this istn't true.

                      it also lacks proper tread, except for tarmac if we'r riding on gravel or wet surface then sure its a recepie for disaster.

                          Actually twister tyre is a bigger one comparing to other 100cc bikes. But it looks skinny in twister bcz of the bikes bigger body
