    Anyway I guess its still better than Geo-cruiser.
    yeah.. absolutely.. its much much better than the good for nothing Geo-Cruiser

    i just had this tyre installed a month back.. but dont knw y.. these days am seeing lot of Michellins on ZMA.. so have a eye on it..

          I have a P220.... running stock on front (due for a change) and Zapper Vyde at the rear.

          I always check which tyres ppl are running on... and hence came across many ZMAs recently who r using M45s.

              Yaa a lot of P220s have Michelins.... even I was to go for Michelin Sirac 120/90... but somehow the grip on that tyre did not excite me... and moreover the height of the bike increases a lot and when put on main stand... both the tyres touch the ground.. which is not a good thing. That tyre is for off-roading.
              so went ahead and got the stock size MRF.

                            I had called him up last week...the only Michelins he had were Sirac 120/90-17". And he quoted 3150/-...!!!
                            But he said that the entire range of Michs should be avaiable from March end, and asked me to call up again in the first week of April

                            • @ Chetan : Called up the Sign tyres too...they have the Michelin 2.75*18" Tubeless Front for 1450/- and Michelin M45 100/90*18" Tubeless Rear for 2150/- available..!! But, the thing is that they can't transport/courier to any place..!!

                                i have used duro in my unicorn for about 10k.The grip was awesome(tested it extensively during the monsoon lonavala trip(b'day g2g)),but changed as some cracks had started to develop.Currently using ceat vertigo.Grip, is i wud say a 7 out of 10.
