    But on tarmac its leach.
    Sometimes people will spend a lot on the performance needed,
    An fz is an amazing handler and it deserves even better tyres
    But then the price is a deal breaker for many.
    Anyways depends on individuals.


    divyansh....

    Yes fz has got brilliant chassis, both the tyres and the small engine is not doing justice to this kind of bike, she deserves more powerful engine and tar like tyres.

      Hey guyz..Is there any difference between tube-type rims & Tubeless rims??

      I know the difference in tires & how to identify. But how can I identify if my rims support tubeless.
      Any identification marks like those in tires?
      My steed is RTR-Hyperedge 2010 model. Stocks came with tube-type tires.
      So will it support tubeless tires??

        You can use tubeless tyres with your existing alloy wheels, you just have to change the air filling nozzle in the rim and you are good to go,alos make sure that your alloys are not bend or deformed at any place.

            The MRF REVZ-S 130/70 R17 is also a soft and radial tyre like the michelin street radial..donno y its so expensive. almost 2k more than the mrf.

            And very soft compound too.
            Being a radial tyre its more resistant to flexing and deforming even on a little lower air,
            Overall a superior design.
            More puncture resistant too.
            And man it grips!

            The revz-s tyre which u r mentioning comes only in 130/70..the 140 section tyre is mrf revz not revz-s....and the revz-s will be lighter than ceat.. and it will be better for the NS.

                The tyre is awsome in dirt, good on dry tarmac - Agreed
                Unbelievably good on wet sludge and ok in wet tarmac - Really? Are you sure?
                If you are a sedate rider and dont go over 100 then its good - Agreed

                Tvs made michelins are at par with zper c and qs
                Muxh better than tvs euroslips and crapchakras.....
                Zapper q if you can source is also good!
                And it might not be a direct fit
                You might need to cut the chain cover... not sure but. Hunk owner might tell you better.


                divyansh....
                Sirac street is rumored to be manufactured by TVS and is hard compound. I have been using it since 15k kms and I can tell you it GRIPS very bad on wet roads.
                25k kms old zappers grip better on wet roads than sirac street!!

                Like @kusmaker said you can use TL tyres on alloys. But make sure your alloy is free from bends. Even a slightest bend will create problems(Air leakage). I had this problem so had to use a tube.

                Never argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and then beat you with experience.

                  Yes bro. On wet tarmac is not good
                  But on muddy off road sections its very good.
                  I generally stay below 80 bro.

                    Hey folks..I enquired the prices of MRF tires of different models in bangalore.

                    Zapper Vyde (TL)- 2600/-
                    Zapper Q (TL)- 2300/-
                    Meteor (TT)- 2000/-

                    Are they quoting high?
                    I'm planning to go for Zapper Vyde.

                      Price in kolkata is 2450 so I suppose the price is ok from where you are....
                      Try to haggle a little on the prices they have a margin of 300rs or so.

                                So I guess MRF revz is the only option I got
                                Does it perform better than contigo on cbr...?
