    A little bit pointless putting High performance radials on a Bandit 250, even if his rims were wide enough to qualify for a fitment.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    Considering in another forum he's asking about getting his knee down, i simply recomended the stickyest tyres. Personally id go for a harder compound on a bandit too, but if hes wantin to try n get his knee down, the stikyer the better.

    You're missing the point dude, he can't get those tyres in the right sizes for his bike, plus that bike's suspension is designed around the extra compliance granted by the sidewall of a crossply. The tyres we're discussing aren't exactly "hard" compound either. They are all better than anything proddy racers could buy 15 years ago, around the same time the Bandit was made.

    Fair enuf, i dont know the fitment on a bandit. I was just recomending some tyres to look at cus their sticky as. And the tyres he would be putting on would be of a harder compound than the tyres i sugested looking at.
