Shinko tires?

[Sunny]

I ran Shinko tires on my old Honda Sabre - the forum judgment was high on that brand. I got around 8 to 10 k miles on the rear of that V4 700.

Anybody put Shinko tires on their NT700? I'm considering it. My rear Conti Motion has 9300 miles on it and can go a bit more, but will soon to be replaced.

I have been running Shinko 70x series on my NT700V since i think 2029 , ~5k miles and lots of tread left. No cracks etc. Always ran at the recommended tire pressure.

Bike is stable and easily falls into corners its a pleasure to ride and carve out the corners...

Is that Shinko a bias ply or radial?

2029 eh...? So do you have to hit 88mph on the NT to engage the flux capacitor to allow you go to 2029 to buy the Shinko's?

Just askin'...
