      no idea for p150 bro...but for 200/220..no mods..direct fit..handling good on wet surface and smooth roads...
      Never encountered it with offroading. But being a sof compound tyre...it suddenly started to have punctures...and 3 punctures and i rectified one and then observe that my tyre is getting flatter..then saw another puncture

      PUCTURE KIT: HELP
      I'm planning to get good puncture repair kit, but I've experienced the puncture repair(rubber) are of various qualities...repaired 3 punctures..one of the repair is of poor rubber quality ...not much sticking to the tyre
      Is there any brand for a puncture repair kit to rely on....??any idea in delhi??
      its all about CC...

            OT: Are you saying that the guy in your area replaced his 120/80 rear tyre with 80/90 rear tyre??

              • Hi guys,

                Need an opinion on the following tyres:

                1. Michelin M45 3.50 x 18
                2. Michelin Sirac 120x18
                3. IRC Durotour 110x18

                I am changing the rear tyre of my zma. Currently they are running on stock MRF tyres. Looking for road & slightly off road capability which can handle wet surface firmly. Planning to change it this week so any suggestions would be great!!

                  Ive been hearing only good things about the Sirac. If im not mistaken, you had tried M45's on your Uni right..?
                  In that case, the Sirac is definitely a good choice for your Zma

                    Yeah I had used m45 on my Uni but it was too oversized for the bike, but it had good cornering. I was looking for Sirac rathar than M45 is because I am looking for a little off roader but mainly road tyre. The grooves on the Sirac look pretty good.

                    Anyone fixed the same on a Zma? Will it require the removal of the chain cover? cause I think Sirac is avaialble only as a 120 option.

                          Its better if this question is answered by Xenologik, he is using the same tyre

                            • I have a 100/80/17 (IRC tubeless) front and 110/90/18 (M45 tubed) on my rear..
                              bike behaves awfully unstable on the corners.. Is it because of my fat front tyre?

                              I jus had an accident.. my bike slipped sideways while taking a corner!
                              A good long ride can clear your mind, restore your faith, and use up a lot of fuel.

                              Always be ready (get geared) to fall and then think of sitting on the motorcycle.

                                A lighter front will always give you a good feel in handling, get it back to stock specifications.
