    Default tyres for the ZED

    just wondering if anyone has tried the Maxxis ma-ps presa sport tyres. I work in a tyre store and only use maxxis on my car and love them. however we cant get bike tyres and was hoping people could give me there opinions on what they are like or even recomend something else.

    I have a z1000 07 have run Michelin 2ct,s for the last coupla years .they are hard to fault on fast windy roads and return about 7000ks for arround $520 fitted.Much better than original dunlops ( stuffed at 4000ks)..

    I have qualifiers. You will find plenty of previous posts on my experience with them. In 40,000 km i fitted my third front at 36,0000 and my 4th rear at 38,000. Rough wear figures are 18,000 per front and 12,000 rear.

    Next time around I will probably do both at the same time and try roadsmarts. Just to broaden my horizons.
