FZS600 Fazer / Need tyres - Recommended ones from you guys?
« on: 15 August 2020, 12:13:14 am »
Ok, well, my MOT is due in 2 months.
I will definitely be needing a new rear tyre... It got plenty of meat on it at this time, however I dont see it lasting as I am piling on the miles.
The thing is, that I have been out of the 2 wheelers scene for a good few years and I have been riding my trikes.
This is due to me having a nasty bump and so I am slightly paranoid about coming of again, and this has made the center of my tyre just a tad on the worn side, while the sides are meatier than a butchers bin, and this has made the tyre almost look like a car tyre.
I was thinking about these dual compound tyres that some people seem to mention.
What is the actual facts about them?
I am no racer, I am however a fat git.
I currently have mitchelins on both front and back, and the bike has a built-in magnet that seems to make it attracted to lines in the road, and so I plan on avoiding mitchelins.
My Honda ( another impulse buy ) has Dunlop and they are lovely and round, however, they are slippy as heck and I am terrified of riding that in the wet.
I just want some input really, if anyoen can offer me a good long life tyre?
