    You could run a whole series and some track days on one set on a 250 easy.
    I want GPRa10s for my RGV, vj21 (with dead powervalve at the mo) it has 18 rear

    im waiting to see if they are going to limit the sizes if not i have some in mind that will kick arse there not the batle axes (those are for sport tourer bikes my friends my dad uses them for his 900 xjr diversion) but there the level up if you want to put it that way bit stickier and still economical.

    fairings not finished had some issues with the bog so they will be done and on the bike tomorow. dont worry, ill get you bike fappers your pics lol

    You had problems with the bog? Bugger..... My old man used sport demons on his fj1200, does that mean they suck?
    Think about it, a 33hp hyosung is NOT going to over power the rear tyre. Hope you pick a good tyre

    Probably means intelligent beings.
    Chaos, I would recommend looking at the Michelin P sporty [not the sport. They would be an ideal bit of rubber, better than a sport demon and shinko suck.

    Sport Demons are great for the old bikes, can get all the old sizes,

    your lucky having the range in tyres to choose from,

    Go hard Chaos

    the're not bigger. the're for lighter bikes, the batle axes are not the best for high profermance (dont get me wrong the're briliant tyres) but michilan made another tyre, the brother of the batle axe, cant remember the name.

    they have a difrent tread and are made with a dif compound that suits sport bikes better the the tourers. very similar but (not better) but better suited.
