Not going to make it.

04-22-2011, 07:04 PM

I was hoping my Shinko Advance 005s would last until June. Unfortunately I won't even make it into May with them. The rear has a large section showing cord and the front has a small strip of cord showing. Thanks to all the nice straight flat roads here in NOPO FLA the edges still have lots of tread left.

The OEM Crapadams lasted 10K miles.
My next set were Metzler Z6s lasted 12K.
My current Shinko 005s have 6,586 miles.

I have a set of IRC Roadwinners in my living room waiting to be put on. I guess instead of going fishing next Thursday I'll be taking my bike in to have the rubber replaced.

Okay.... Have you have figured out some way to make the bottom of your bike and the top of the bike closer together... maybe put it under a steam roller or something?

i just changed my shinko 005's two days ago had 11k on them so i figured i'd stay with shinko but got the 006 podiums. they also look cool with the half boomerang goin on in the tread.
