    does m45 too has that characteristics
    apart from this i have gone through this thread but iam very confused with mixed reviews
    finally leaving all confusions i come down with either Michelin or MRF
    in MRF i come down with Zapper c and Moto D

    so guys here it is M45 vs Zapper c vs Moto D
    which has got best of best wet traction
    Do let me know which city /town you are residing in. As of now, we have Michelins selling in all states of India and maybe I can help you there.

    • @GoGreen: I'm posting this on my friend's behalf. He has a P180 UG3&wishes to change to tubeless. He wants to retain stock specs i.e., 80/90*17" front&100/80/17" rear. Are there any options in Michelin? If yes, could you please let us know the approximate prices&dealers in Hyderabad?

      Thanks,
      Sarvajit.

          I am also looking out for new rubbers for my RTR's rear ..am hunting for Zapper C everywhere for more than a month..first it was production problems in factory, now not available for 18" wheels....
          how much did the M45 cost you man?

                Dear Sarvajit,

                Currently our range in 17" is limited. We have a 120/90 17 Sirac to offer for the rear, but am not sure that would fit in directly or not. I do not recommend modifications to the bike for upsizing of tyres.

                            this will happen even without a pillion if u dont change the rear shock settings...put it on the hardest setting and this problem will go away.

                              no i believe 3.0 is 100..and 4.0 (which is what i have) is 110.
