VTR 250 2003 bias or radial

[FastBikeGear]

Can anyone advise me of the original tyre fitment for a 2003 VTR 250?

Was it a bias or radial tyre?

What pressure should I run the current Bridgestone Battleax BT45 tyres at?

Many thanks in advance for your advice and help

The stock tyres on the VTR250's were Bridgestone Exdra's. G601 on the front and a G602 on the rear. They are bias tyres.

For your BT45's the best i can suggest is the pressures i ran in my Pilot Activs, 34 front and 36 rear. Could always give cycletreads etc. a quick call and ask them what they suggest.

Many thanks Shingo. was in cycle works today looking at some luggage and asked the questonthey say 33lbs in front and 35lbs in rear. They even readjusted the pressures as a courtesy for me when I asked the question.

Yet again great service.
