  • I am looking for an 18" tubeless tyre 100/90 for my Unicorn. Which is the brand thats suitable for the Unicorn rear tyre? I am NOT looking for tube tyres.

    Any info?

      Recommendations please. Considering the fact its a '06 model pulsar, I'm not looking for Michelin/Pirelli.. etc.etc.
      You can go for the Zapper in the front. Forgot the model number !

      And how is the overall grip of Geocruiser ?

              once pulsar started coming in alloys, they were 17 inches AFAIK.

                  I am using the geocruiser for my Apache 150... 100/90 -17. Its awesome! the grip in the wet, on gravel and mud and cornering grip on tarmac is splendid....

                    Go get the R-15 tyres from your nearest yamaha dealer, you will never regret.

                      How much are they worth? Am on a tight budget. The max I can stretch is Rs 1500.

                            I found an article dated "Sunday, Jan 09, 2005" here.

                            The Hindu Business Line : New Bajaj Pulsars: `Re-loaded' at all right places

                            "...The most striking pair of features that the Pulsars have been given are of course the new 17-inch, six-spoke alloy wheels and the gas shock absorbers..."


                            @mempheS.D: the current R15 tyres have great grip. I suggest you go for that one for your 2006 Pulsar.

                            • Tyre swap for APACHE RTR FI

                              The front tyre of APACHE RTR FI measures 90/90 can it be changed to 100/80 (the one which the F16 sports in front), using the same rim size of the FI....
