read the article regarding Arizona Motorsports.......... i'd love to hear their side of the story..........
i've never heard anything regarding shinko tires. funny part is, i can only imagine it's tough getting into the market for motorcycle tires. personally, i've got to be able to trust a company that providing me with the only two tires that are going under my ass, at whatever speed i may be riding at that day.
in short: you get what you pay for, and a cheap price doesn't always mean a good deal. :thumb:
Those tires look EXACTLY like the Yokohama radials of about a decade or more ago, I think they were also called the 003. Tread looks like firecrackers.
From what I've heard, shinko was bought by Yokohama (or vice versa). But then again, I've never seen them or tried them, so I have no expirience with them either.

On a 99.6% unrelated note (except that the dude posted about AZM filing to have the domain name transfered to them) ICANN rules are pretty clear. Unless he registered that name prior to 1998 he's put himself right in the crosshairs for a lawsuit for the domain name. As far as I know the content is still protected in the 1st amendment though.
Interesting read. I've deal with AZM via mail-order and although I don't think I was shafted I won't do it again.. the transaction left me feeling slimed upon and the stuff did not arrive in a timely manor (plus the tires were old!).
Shinko is what both of us SBs use for the drag strip.....awesome grip!!! Good price also.
