              Thanx for the info, but the sizes are in 2.50, 2.75 n so on. 2.75 is standard for front like the the stock, dats understood but which one is closer to a 100/90 profile ??

              • @Gaurav: Got the 2.75 M45 at the exact price you put up here. Plus got my Michelin sticker this time.. Still haven't put it up. The sticker is much bigger than i expected. I should be able to squeeze it in onto the chain guard ithink.

                now, my 2009 Unicorn is running on 2.75 M45 front and 4.00 M45 rear. I'll try and write my opinion about the M45s very soon.

                          • finally i got m45 for both front and rear for my pulsar 180 2002 model. i tries sirac 120/80 18 for rear but it needed some modifications + the shop owner himself asked me to change the tyre to m45.

                            i paid 1650 rs for m45 4.00 18
                            n 1350 for 2.75 18....both without tubes ,as my earlier tubes were fine.

                            but the shop owner asked me to keep front air pressure as 25 and rear as 35, which according to him is the best air combination.
                            i have always used 35-30 combination.

                            please advice which is the best and safest combination

                            in b/w ,the rear tyre m45 is luking decent and i think for 1650 it is value for money.

                            • ceat and mrf can not match the performance of michelin..... i saw meteor also and seriously hated the tyre..... mrf exclusive shop owner hikmself said it is a ok types tyre.

                              ceat is nowhere in competition with michelin.

                                Im referring to a low profile tyre as compared to standard size for the front tyre.
                                Say as in if we consider a profile for rear tyre then we have 100/90/18, 100/80/18, 100/70/18 and so on...... the same way a bit low profile for the front one as compared to the standard size.
                                I hope u get it.
