    1st of all welcome to xbhp aneesh...do not hesitate to share or express anything here....we all are like-minded bikers here...

    the sirac is a good tyre and doesnt have much problems with it..go ahead and share your review about it
    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 ! :)

    • hi... i read some posts in this section ( of course not all ) but I could hardly find any opinion about bridgestone tyres... I own an RTR 180 presently and i dont think i need to describe my stock tyres... .. ridiculous grip... and I am planning of changing both the front and rear tyres at the same time soon.... from what i have experienced and from what every one has written over here, i can conclude that zapper and michelin are the best options as a replacement... but i would also like to know about Bridgestone tyres.... has anybody tried it?? how is it in dry as well as wet conditions? can it be called the best replacement when compared to the other two?

      if anybody has experienced bridgestone tyres, pls suggest me whether to go for it or not..

      • @^^^ because bridgestone is not available easily for indian bikes and the few places that import it have it priced very very expensive [ Rs 4000+ ] . for rtr 180 you can have pirelli sports demon , zapper fs for front and zapper vyde , c , r15 rear tire , dazzler rear tire for rear

          My friend recommended MRF RIB 2.75 for the front and MRF nylogrip S 3.17 for the rear.

          What shall be the best combo for my needs?
          No replies brothers???????


          I forgot to mention 1 thing.......the tires should have good grip with stoppies and wheelies
          A good long ride can clear your mind, restore your faith, and use up a lot of fuel.

            I heared that there is only 1 to 2mm distance between the tyre and the swing arm area,any problems like that ,and do i need to cut my rear mud guard in order to acomodate the tyre?

            Anyway thanks for the quick reply!

It was a very good tyre, so tend to compare it with pilot sporty. Straight Line stability is def lesser than vee rubber coz of the lesser contact patch!
              LOLz i am comparing mine with GEO. Geo never held consistant grip on corners due to knobs.
              There's lot to it other than saddle....

                      3.00 18 SIRAC Street is a Rear tyre. For 3.00 18 Front, you can try M35, M45 or M62. 120/80 18 SIRAC is a good choice.

                        Hi, Are there any tubeless options for 3.00 - 18? I currently ride a HH ZMR.

                        M62 was a good dual purpose option, but it was not tubeless.
