Review - Shinko 009 Raven Radial Motorcycle Tire
07 May 2009 06:38 - 07 May 2009 12:44
So far this is the best tire I have ever used.
9/32 tread new - after 2815 miles – 2/32 worn, 7/32 left
All riding so far has been 2 up with loaded saddle& Tank bags
projected mileage = 12,500+ miles
ZR1100 Zepher rear tire size = 170/60-17
This tire is also offered in other sizes also.
I bought the Shinko R230's for my KZ but have not installed them yet.

I will write a review for those also.
I have not been happy with any tires Till now.
