    shinko tires 2 thumbs up

    Well the front and rear Shinko tires finally came it, "brake pads to" and I just finished taking it for a cold rip down the double lane highway. It feels much better than the dunlops. I can easily change lanes , maneuvers corners better and the front tire doesn't follow every crack in the road...

    Front tire choice with Shinko 230 170/80/15 rear

    I think i've decided to get a shinko 230 rear 170 size tire from what i've read about them. It's a cheap tire that is fairly grippy and doesn't last as long as some others. I want a front that I can push a little harder than the average guy in the corners. I thought about running a 150 rear for...

    New Shinko, bumping front end

    Hi Every body! Last week I put a new Shino on the front of my max. I did so because my old tire was scalloped badly. I also discovered my steering head bearings were quite loose. So I adjusted the bearings, installed the new tire and checked its ballance ( was right on no weight needed)...

    Shinko 777?

    I apologize if this has been answered before, I searched the forum but for some reason the 777 didn't show, just shinko. Need a new front tire and thinking about the 777 in size 120/90-18, any input would be appreciated. I am not committed to the larger front tire but considering it. I...

    CARROZZERIA, shinko 200 verge, will it fit?

    I'm buying Garrett's bike which has a Morley notched and braced swing arm. Will the Shinko verge 200 on CARROZZERIA 18" wheel fit? Any special procedures required?

    avon 170 tire VS Shinko 200

    I was a lil shocked to see the Shinko 200/50/18 that much taller than the Avon 170/60/18 side by side. I really thought the Shinko was going to be shorter it being a 50 series:confused2: was really happy it was taller

    Turbo my Max ? And update on Shinko tires.

    So I have all these extra turbo parts that came with my Busa..... got me thinking of putting a turbo on my Max. I would just be concerned at how much power a stock motor could take. Could you see 175-200 hp without breaking the trans, bending rods or snapping parts? I think nitrous is a...

    Shinko tire update 7-2012

    Just thought I would put a update on my tires. I installed them a little over a week ago. July 14th for the rear and July 16th for the front. I have just over 800 miles on the rear now and 200 on the front. The rear felt good on take off and around corners. With the rear being new and the...

    Shinko Specs!

    tire size, recommended rim size, etc: http://shinkotire.co.kr/english/02product/sub01_list.asp?bcode=AA&mcode=0001 the shinko tech guy i was talking to said +/- .5" on the recommended rim size should be no problem altho he can't 'recommend' it.

    Shinko 230's front and rear what do you say?

    As the title states. I know guys run the 230 rear in a 170 form, and many use a different front tire. I have bad tires front and back. I found a package deal $151 on ebay with free shipping. Both Shinko tires 230 110 90 18 and 170 80 15. Does that sound decent price wise? Who has the...

    Shinko 230 170/80 15 and 110/90 18

    Just got these delivered today and installed today as well. Riding home my bike felt, well, really different. Awkward even. Kinda wobbly, sloppy feeling. Anyone that has used/is using these tires care to chime in?

    Shinko + Motorcycle Superstore = SOL

    Need to blow off some steam with my fellow Maxers...bought front/rear Shinko 230s from MS and had them mounted & balanced...took for a ride and I could feel a hop starting at 35mph that really sucked at 45mph (cruising speed). Brought back to the shop that mounted/balance for re-check and all...

    New Shinko

    Just ordered my new tires, they finally are making the Shinko verge in 200/50-18 and I ordered a 120/70-18 for the front, I'll have to move my fender down some but I already measured and it will look good I think. Now its time to tear the bike down and start on the swingarm, sent an email to...

    Shinko Verge

    I just ordered my new Shinko Verge 200/50-18 from bike bandit for $136.76 which I thought was a great deal :biglaugh: Although I'm putting this on my gen 1 (Kosman 18"x6" wheel, 3" extended and notched swingarm) I just thought I'd let you gen 2 guys know that you now have another tire option!

    shinko 005 radial

    so this one comes in many rear sizes to fit my 17" rim but it also has a 130 front (130/17/18) to be exact. any thoughts on if it would fit in an otherwise stock front end with a cazz front rim? http://www.bikebandit.com/shinko-005-advance-motorcycle-tire right now i'm running a 120/70-18...
