    Hi everyone, Im looking at buying a new set of tyres for my sp50 thats been slightly tweeked lol Thing is i want some pretty good sticky tyres but i dont want them so sticky that they square off if ive gotta do 50 miles of straight road.... So sticky and decent wearing not too fussed about price....
    Any ideas would be helpful :)

    Bridgestone ML50's, Michelin Pilot Sports, Schwalbe Racemans, etc etc.

    All good tyres but 50 miles of straight road will end up killing any tyre.

    Cheers terro. The roads aint totally straight but not exactly scrubbing your edges material either lol just like a good medioka kinda tyre thats grippy but not gonna destroy at rediculas rates and i live in the lakes and it kinda does nothing but rain lol so gotta run well in the wet. There are so many brands to choose from i was just wondering on personal experiences.

    You still got that caliper??

    I've got ML50's on my Typhoon they are highly rated by lots of people. I've never tried Pilot sports as they don't do them in small sizes but most runner owners love them and I've got raceman's on my vespa and rate them and have just ordered another set!

    Still got the caliper haven't got round to taking the forks off yet!
