Street Stock 250cc 4-stroke twins

**puddytat** · 10th August 2009, 22:32

Just been checking on mylaps some times for the Streetstocks at Ruapuna,& the quick fellas are doing 1;54's on them, which is an average speed of only about 7km/h or 10secs per lap slower than what Ive managed on me R6....impressive of them I reckon & indicative of how slow I am

I'll be more than happy if I could pull an even 2:00....

go on my album and look at my bike!! it aint pretty but its got the grunt and its got the rider {sort of...

} so its a race bike!!!

you dont need a fancy paint job...the only reason people have nice paint jobs is to impress the sponsors and get money from them

**chaos rider** · 11th August 2009, 22:10

um i think thats the idea off a paint job yes, and your point is??

lol
if painting the bike up makes my ride any cheaper ill do it.. i hope

By all means Chaosrider, if you want your Hyosung GT250R/P racebike to look pretty, then GO FOR IT!!!!

As a point though mate, how are you going with your tyre selection?

The general consensus is that the OE tyres are not really suitable for racing (Pukekohe is not really a track that is hard on tyres, but......... you get what I am saying)

Have you looked in to some cheap alternatives? (second hand)

I would suggest you all wait till the rules are made available before rushing out and buying tyres.

Good point there Billy, however, I am of the opinion that the chances of MNZ using the original "SHINKO" tyres that the Hyosung comes with as control tyres for the class would be about as likely as Clayton Weatherston not having an extremely sore Ass by now...........

Bwahahaha!!Good point,The point I was trying too get across is,At one stage they were talking about OEM tyre sizes,However I think they are reconsidering and it looks like they may use common sense and make it Manufacturers recommended rim size

**RDjase** · 12th August 2009, 12:09

What size Rims and tyres do Hyosungs have?

18s are silly

I had an 18 on the rear of my bros650, it looked yum but was poo. I would expect 110/80/17 front and 140/70/17 rear
But correct me if I am wrong.
