Any recommended place or shop in pune to get Michelin pilot street 150/60 [MENTION=28959]decent[/MENTION] price?
Online prices are around 5400

Good quality Sealant won't cause any damage to rims. But if you leave your bike unused for a long time it will accumulate at the valve area making it a bit tough to top up air.
For the tyre, 120 will make the bike sluggish so I would suggest go with Pulsar tyre 100/90 if you really want to.

Hi ,
I changed my CBZ Extreme tyres

Back-- Zapper Vyde 100/90 - 18 tubeless - cost Rs.2300
Front - - Zapper FS 80/100 -18 tubeless - cost Rs.1700

Two valves as I am changing from tube type to tubeless - Rs.200

6 month nitrogen - Rs.150

The total cost was Rs.4350 . I changed it from MRF centre - Prem tyres , Chembur , Mumbai . Zapper Vyde 100/90 - 18 is hard to source. Also the lady in the shop told me that there is a 3 year warranty .
60 Km done now. Feels good and the grip is also very good. I don't corner much normally as I had a fall earlier but now I am able to corner the bike. Have to see how much I can.

And thanks for the help to choose the tyre.

Update

After riding for a good 225Km in Mumbai rains and roads..the tyres are super grippy. You can curise at high speeds an can attack corners very easily. Even if you didn't bend the bike , it will do it automatically . After a small ride of 30K itself , you will feel the grip and gives you much confidence. Even in heavy mumbai rains, these tyres didn't slipped once. These are not offroad tyres. The vehicle also fels smooth to drive

I want to change the tyres of my 3 year old unicorn 150..it has running about 36000 km on stock tyres. Which tyres should I go for??? And what is standard tyre change interval?

Thanks

Hi

Please dont go for Michelin Sirac street for rear since the tread buttons cause vibes at different speeds.

I replaced the tyres to Michelin recently and getting vibes at 22kmph. This issue is already discussed in the forum and happens exclusively for cb Unicorn 150.

Better to stick with MRF OR CEAT.

P.S. Although I am getting vibes & not happy this is an excellent tyre, it offers superior road grip, very smooth to ride, excellent cornering ability, reduced braking distance.

Cheers!

How & what difference does it make if front is radial and rear nylon on CBR250 MRF's?

Usually rear tires are always used for bias ply. Front is usually used for radial for better grip and overall performance of the bike. Mixing tires is never a good idea in my opinion, the dynamics, the grip, the load handling characteristics of a radial is equally opposite to that of a bias ply. To keep it simple, performance bikes use radial for a reason. Either bias play on both ends or radials at the both ends, not vice one radial and one bias ply. It can hamper performance, if demanded.
