93 K75S - tire opine
« on: April 23, 2012, 01:47:38 PM »
Pete called and desires new rubber for his 93 K 75 S. (fairly aggressive rider, stock wheel sizing)

What's the best choice for him ?

Bridgestone BT 45 ?

Something different duck ?

I put some Bridgestone Spitfire S11s on a K75S that I brought back to life last year.  I rode the bike to Sacramento down The Cascades and they seemed to perform just fine.

Personally though, for riding hard, I'd be tempted to try some off-size radials that will fit those rims.  I'd go with a 110/80-18 Bridgestone BT-023 or Pilot Road 2 on the front and a 140/80-17 Avon Azaro AV46 on the rear.
Once I had a Collie pup. Dug a hole and covered him up. Now I sit there by the hour. Waiting for a Collie-flower.
