Re: Tyres

Re: Tyres

Hello!

I am looking for a replacement for my Apache RTR 180 ABS tyres.
I have zeroed in on the REVZ radial series 120'' .
And for the front, I will be going with a zapper of the same dimensions as stock

Any suggestions for front or any negative feedback on the REVZ?

Thanks in advance

Re: Tyres

Revz 120/80 is great being Radial, for the front Zapper FY1 90/80 is a wee bit low profile and grippiest with full on feedback, the combo is just amazing.

Cheers

Re: Tyres

Guys what options are available for tyre size 110/80 r17.....

Re: Tyres

I was planning on a 100 profile for the front.
But if FY1 is tried and tested, will stick to that !

Re: Tyres

Yes, FY1 on RTR is proven... 100 section is an overkill and would hamper handling.

Cheers

Re: Tyres

You are a life saver!
Thank you so much for your quick responses !

Cheers mate!

Re: Tyres

Anytime mate!

In Bangalore, 6 months back
FY1 90/80 - 2050
Revz 120/80 - 3050
Fitment - free from MRF exclusive store

Let us know how it feels on your RTR and cost of tyres.

Cheers

Re: Tyres

Will do! have to see the price ranges in Hyderabad.

Additionally - my friend is also planning on changing his Tyres. He rides a P220, any suggestions people?
We are planning on going for the same as of now. The REVZ-FY1 combo.

Re: Tyres

You are a life saver brother😀 I was looking for someone with a Gixxer with Masseters. Is this better than the stock tyre? How is cornering now? Is it a direct fit or some extra effort is required?
Please try to answer all questions😉😄

Re: Tyres

140/70 and 150/60 tyres are a direct fit.

Is this better than the stock tyre?

Yea..better than revz m and y.. awesome wet grip and feedback.

How is cornering now?

Cornering is awesome.. i can lean more and more with this.
Ist a direct fit or some extra effort is required?

Yes.. direct fit..no efforts required. Little height will increase.. thats not a problem

Re: Tyres

If he is upgrading both the tires, then it'd suggest him to check the Zapper Vyde and Masseter 120/80 and or the Masseter 80/90 or the Zapper FYI 80/90 for the front end, both are very good tires. Though the stock tire rating of the 220 is 90/90 and 120/80.

Cheers!

Re: Tyres

Zapper FY is 80/90 and Zapper FY1 is 90/80.
I am running FY1 90/80 up front and Vyde 120/80 rear on my P150. While a friend of mine runs FY1 and Masseter 120 combo.
FY1 is, let's say just FY1, known for phenomenal grip and cornering stability, be it dry or wet tarmac, you can even pull stoppies with this tyre on wet tarmac. Its got a round profile just like the Masseter and it looks great. No wobbling or fishtailing even at hard braking or locking. It just grips and grips.
Masseter rear 120 is great, very stable at corners and offers great grip. The compound is good and same soft compound as used in Zapper Vyde. No fishtailing observed yet.
Zapper Vyde is known for grip, an almost bald Z Vyde will offer much more grip than a heated new TVS Srichakra or even Zapper C 100 section. Though the profile is flatter than Masseter, the tyre shows fishtailing under hard braking only on dry tarmac, on wet tarmac it just shines and doesn't usually fishtail until there is debris on the tarmac.
..
About the price - Zapper FY1 front is ₹1650-1750. Rear Masetter is ₹2800-3100. Rear Vyde is 2400-2900. Front Masetter is 1700-1800. Cheers !



For the Pulsar I would suggest a 120-130 section rear tyre with a roundier profile like the Masetter. Revz is just too flat, even Vyde is roundier.
