Hiya,

I've just a bought a new front tyre for the ZX-10 very cheaply brand-new from TardeMe.

It's a Bridgestone Battlax BT80S at 120/70 17 58H.
Now the size is correct for my bike but the thing that concerns mean is that it's not Z-rated. Now I'm don't race her or go over 180km/h sort of thing, more just cruise these days and I wanted a sticky front tyre as the '10 does push the front end in the corners.
I'm running a 160/60 18 Bridgey BT020 on the rear which is fine condition.

Will the front be good enough for the old girl?
(I found out it's OEM for NSR250's and NC35's)

Cheers,
NDMz

It will be fine at those speeds, no worries.

Yeah,...I figured but just wanted reassurance, cheers for that.
I know that Z-rated is for 240km/h +....dunt happen on the road for me that's for sure !!!!
