  • I'm going to replace my Pulsar 150's tyres(spoke wheels).

    The sizes of my stock tyres are:

    Front: 2.75-17 (Zapper-F5)
    Rear: 100/90-17 (Zapper-C)

    Since I'm having spoke wheels, I'm not interested in radials/tubeless/upsizing.

    Please help me to select better tyres having the stock sizes.

    And, how is Dunlop Geocruiser 100/90 or should I stick with the MRF brand ?

      Just curious, You say you have P150 with spoke rims... How is it 17"? isnt it 18"?????

      How about better rubber than dunlop or MRF? michelin M45 perhaps.

      • @shark80: I guess Pulsar 150 V2 without electric start came with 17' spoke wheels

        • At the time when the V2 was launched there was a cheaper version without electric start and alloys at 49990/-.

          Its prolly that one!

            geocruiser is good. I think paisa vasool stuff. Ravi has an 18" one on his ZMA and it is many times better than the MRF's.

            M45 is another choice. In fact it seems Ravi went to buy the M45 but when he saw the Geocruiser he bought that instead.. pls check with Ravi@17bhp for 1st hand info.

                              It works great...but not as good as Ceat Secura Zoom or Dunlop Mosnster

                              Pleeeaaaaaasssssseeeeeeeeee.. Do Not Go For it.. The worst tyre in the market..gets bald from the centre and then creates a problem from the side...
                              Drop the IDEA for GEO-Cruiser

                                Budget doesn't matter
