      Now mrf revz y 140/60 r17 has round profile than previous mrf revz 140/60 r17. I have fazer and I have opted the 2nd option. Results are good in terms if handling, cornering, flickability, mileage. Bt lacks a bit on wet grip n hard braking..

        Sorry for replying on this old thread. I want to change my fazer's rear tyre. Kindly suggest me which tyre should I choose? Michelin pilot sporty or ceat zoom xl (dhoom)? Both tyre looks good and Michelin pilot sporty has got good reviews too? And from online forums I came to know that ceat dhoom tyre is more heavy? Will It affect bike performance? Thanx in advance.

          Both tyres have terrible wet grip.

            DO NOT go with Michelin Pilot Sporty, it has the worse wet grip. You dont even have to brake to start fishtailing, just give a good throttle and bikes goes left and right. Thats how bad they are in wet. But their dry grip is really good, they perform really well while off roading in dry conditions as per my experience.

            I am currently on a set of Pilot Sporty, so thats my first hand experience.

            I am looking to change too. I just cant find a proper review on any tyre.

            I know about Pilot Sporty, as I am using them, they are terrible on wet.

            I am looking to change my tyre set as monsoons are here, I am looking for tyres with good all weather grip. Do you have any suggestion?

              If you have budget, go for Michelin Pilot Street or Pirelli Sports Demon (5-5.4k). Else new version of stock MRF Revz is good, Revz-M or Y, don't remember exactly (Better than Sporty and ContiGO).

                  Yes. Rear only. Front costs another 4k.


                  MRF Zapper S 140/70-17 available at 4k.

                      Stock front tyre is good. Then there is Zapper S from CBR 150.

                        So I have finally decided to go for Michelin Pilot Street Rear and Zapper S front will this work good? Total cost should be around 7.5k?

                        As Michellin doest have 100-80 for front.

                          Michelin 110/70-17 is there. Works fine without speedo error or trouble handling. Pirelli is available in 100/80-17.

                            Michelin 110/70 is around 4.5k alone, my total budget is around 7.5 k

                              Hi All,
                              Sorry too bother you with this but i too have a similar query related to my rear Tyre for R15 v2.
                              i have shortlisted a few options would you mind giving it a thought.
                              MRF Revz s 130/70/17
                              Zapeer Vyde 120/80/17(Would sizing down hamper the performance and cornering ability)
                              Michellen Pilot street 130/70
                              Michellen Pilot Sporty 140/70(hear mixed reviews)
                              Miles Munching

                                Try pilot Street 130 or 140/70. Amazing tyre.

                                Don't go for Pilot sporty.
