Re: Tyres

Bought this puncture repair kit for 275rs from local shop.
Here in pune 1 puncture costs 80-100rs
So total cost will recover in 3 punctures!!

Re: Tyres

I called MRF kiosk in Navi Mumbai. They don't have100/90 R18 Vyde in stock. They told that they will order it for me and told that it will cost 2K. Has anybody availed MRF kiosk service.Any idea?

If new one is coming with 80/100 , any idea about front rim sizeof new cbz.

Re: Tyres

Its possible but ckeck for air leakages after fitting tubeless tyre .

Re: Tyres

Okiee..got it..what about going for tubeless? The bike came with tube tyres but can i use tubeless with stock alloys?

Re: Tyres

According to wet grip i will arrange them as vyde then secura then zapper c . Vyde is best.
None of this tyre is offroad compatible {like on dirt tracks} .
Though secura will perform better on rural broken or no tarmac roads.
So make ur choice accordingly.

I think , new cbz extreme comes with 80/100 TL as standard for front ,nowadays.

Re: Tyres

Thanks for the reply bro. So if life is not a big problem,then zapper vyde , c & secura sport-i should go with any of these,rt.Any idea about their wet grip n offroad capabilities.

Yea..I'll check if 80/100 will fit.Has anybody tried it in cbz extreme.

Re: Tyres

You listed it all correct bro ,
i am giving character of all tyres:
1.MRF Zapper Q = hard compound, lasts long , less grip
2.MRF Zapper C = better than zapper Q
3.MRF Mogrip Meteor= ride may become harsh, high speed wobble, but good grip
4.MRF Zapper Vyde = best grip but less life
5.Michelin Sirac Street =avoid

8.Ceat Secura Sport= good , less life
9.Ceat Zoom = avoid
10.Ceat Gripp= same as mrf meteor.

Front
1.MRF Zapper FM=good
2.MRF Zapper FS=good
3.Michelin Sirac Street= avoid

80/100 front is a good upgrade but check its fit with mudguard.

Re: Tyres

Hi, am new here
I have a 2009 cbz extreme. I want to change both the tyres as the thread has gone almost n tyre is skidding a lot.
Dimensions..front - 2.75 * 18
back - 100/90 * 18
I want to stick to stock size only as it is the best for the bike. I have shortlisted the following tyres.
Back
1. MRF Zapper Q
2. MRF Zapper C
3. MRF Mogrip Meteor
4. MRF Zapper Vyde
5. Michelin Sirac Street
6. Dunlop Monster
7. Dunlop Geocruiser
8. Ceat Secura Sport
9. Ceat Zoom
10. Ceat Gripp

Front
1. MRF Zapper FM
2. MRF Zapper FS
3. Michelin Sirac Street

I am hearing a lot of negative reviews about Sirac Street ( Indian) & about Dunlops.I need decent grip in both dry & wet road. Could somebody suggest which one to go along.
The bike is currently running with Zappers with tube.Can I use tubeless as wheels are alloys.Also I saw MRF Zapper FQ (80/100-TL).Is it good as front tyre & can i use it in the place of ( 2.75*18) ?All suggestions are heartily wecome.
This is my first query in Xbhp.I love this forum.This is the encyclopedia of bikes and personal diary of bikers.Special congrats to all and especially for those who work behind this and keeps it running.

Thanks,
Mathew

Re: Tyres

got it :banghead:

Re: Tyres

Suggest me WET GRIPVback tyre for bajaj avenger rear tyre
1.mrf zapper y 130/90-15
(Worn our easily n fast)
2.tvs rambo 140/90-15
(Hard grip last long but TYRE IS FISHTAILING ON WET ROADS)

Re: Tyres

I personally used the zoom xl on p220 . When new it was too good but as u clock some kms(in my case after 3000km use) it performed totally different , under normal breaking rear tend to get locked in dry condition.
Zapper Q is hard compound tyre , i think Q =quantity that is more kms life . Revz is radial , zapper c is good. Make your choice.

Re: Tyres

I thought zoom series was medium compound.(If you consider shorter range of tyre selection widely available for Indian bikes).I mean for me tvs is hard.( So what will you call those type of tyres ? )
and also I want to know why zapper Q is to be avoided. Please share if you know about any incidents.

Re: Tyres

Yeah the dry grip is excellent, have done off roading too, has good grip in dry.

Re: Tyres

Go for revz s because 130/70 is the stock size for ns200

Using revz s1 will decrease acceleration n height will increase by 7mm

Re: Tyres

I m zeroed on mrf zapper s1 140/70 17(honda hornet ₹3500) & revz s 130/70 R17(R15 v2 ₹2900) for my ns200 . Current tyre has a lot of punctures so changing it .

My question is which one should i buy ?
How much life should i expect from a radial tyre ?

Any reviews about revz s ? Is it puncture prone ?
