Re: Hi y'all from the uk

On last month's issue of "Superbike" there a multi page article about tires. I checked on their website, Home - Superbike Magazine but they've change it recently so that the content of the site and the printed magazine do not duplicate each other and could not find it. Sorry.
It was a good read however.

Re: Hi y'all from the uk

I tried searching through the tire make websites to find a listing of what's good by specific bike model, but wasn't able to come up with a good answer.
I mean, it is obvious that each tire is specifically made for specific bikes, so there MUST be a certain tire that is only good on the SP-1, and no other tires work on it.
It just CAN'T be possible that tires work on all makes and models and that which tire works well for you depends on what kind of feel you like.
Nope, can't be it.
Get some Cheng Shins. Those things kick ass on SP-1s. Everyone is using them on their tractors as well.
