thank u so much. I think i have got soln from u. I found what i wanted...Thank u again...Originally posted by Swaroopce View PostMy bike, pulsar 150 ug3 has this type of tyre...All 150cc pulsars/Honda dazzler have this size ....
100/90 17"
Here in this sizes you can go for :
Ceat Vertigo(Tubeless) best for rough roads and last longer with good grip.
Mrf zapper C (Tube) Good one to go too but life span is less though grip is good
Tvs - When nothing is available, you can go for this brand....
Dunlop : Decent enough to go for...
Ceat Vertigo :

still waiting for the reply !!!!Originally posted by nitspnta View Postguys i own Bajaj Avenger 180cc. Now i want to change both of its tires to tubeless. i read somewhere on net, that on stock rims it is not possible and i have to change alloys too. Is tht true? If so can u tell the avg total cost on all tires and alloys.

to convert to tubeless tires you will have to change rims from spoke ones to alloy type . front and rear tires from mrf will cost approx 3500 and 6000-7000 rs for branded new alloys .A very good and safe biker not only because he can pop up either of the wheels,scrape his knees on a corner or go fast and make it look stylish but because he very well knows his limits and capabilities and has the patience to learn about others and ride safe ! :)

is the michelin sirac 120/90 17 tubeless ??
and is it available in 130/80 17 as well ??
Is the zapper Q 140/70 advisable for my p220 ?? as in , will the wider section rub against the open chain cover ?? coz ive noticed that the gap now ( using stock 120/80 zapper C ) is very little ... dont know if another 10mm tolerance is there
and if there is no clearance then what can be done ??Last edited by ashwin208; 11-25-2010, 07:39 PM.WARNING : This bike has been Joel-ed

It is very much possible.. the ride height will come down, but it looks good. Tvm xbhpian a.jayamohan had it on his p220.Originally posted by ashwin208 View Postis the michelin sirac 120/90 17 tubeless ??

yeah pirelli sport demons are awesome but i heard that it wont last as much as mrf becuase the pirelli rubber is really soft ( hence very grippy on tarmac ) and will wear out sooner .. Also , its more expensive ..Originally posted by worrisomebear View Postput in pirellis ..they will be awesome...
ride height will come down by :Originally posted by lijok View PostIt is very much possible.. the ride height will come down, but it looks good. Tvm xbhpian a.jayamohan had it on his p220.
80% of 120 mm (coz its 120/80) - 70% of 140 mm (coz its 140/70)
96 - 98
= -2 mm ??
Which means the ride height is going to increase by 2mm !!WARNING : This bike has been Joel-ed
