      I would suggest you to go for sirac street.I was having mrf zapper fs 80/100 tubeless at front in my xtreme.Recently changed it to michelin M45 3.00 18.
      As M45s are difficult to find,you can go for sirac.

          Nope it didnt...we were travelling from Mumbai to Gujarat and got to know this only the 2nd day in the morning...the tyre didnt lose air at all and didnt cause any problem for the ride
          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 ! :)

                • Folks what's you experience with Pirelli Sport Demons ?

                  I'm pretty dissapointed, I've done about 4K Kms in the past 4-5 months that I've had it and there is barely any grip left in them despite having sufficient tread depth.

                    The ones on my brother's bike too started acting funny after 6-7k kms of city riding. But until then it performed very well. However it developed too many small cracks thanks to the roads we have here.
                    Why did you shift from the Sirac though? I am myself on the lookout for better tyre options for the 220.
                    You can take the ride away from me but you cannot take the rider out of my soul.........

                      I forgot to mention that I was talking about the PSD front tyre,and have used it 90% inside city.Im really dissapointed with this tyre,this is behaving like this at 4k kms while even MRF lasts atleast 10K kms.

                      For the back i am still running the Sirac,but yeah i am looking out for an alternative tyre that even Michelin has decided to screw the enthusiast biking junta by discontiuning the Sirac and M45

                      • Tyres for Karizma ZMR

                        Hi All,

                        I am planning to upgrade my Karizma ZMR tyres. I had gone through the forum and found out Michelin M45 and Pirelli Sport demon are the most suggested options. But i also read some bad feedback about Pirelli tyres.
                        So fellow bikers who have used these two tyres please help me out in choosing one for me.

                        Thanks,
                        Satish.

                            • My FZ s front and rear lose preassure by 2psi at both tyres after 3 or 4 days i fill air when tyres are cold
                              there are no punctures some say its beading leakage and resetting the tyre will solve the problem
                              is there any other reason for the problem and will reseting solve the problem completely
                              anything i should take care or check when the tyre is being resetted in the shop
                              fz has tubeless tyres
