I've heard of them, but I don't know very much about them. Seems safe to go with a tire you've heard of, and others, to me though.

Enjay- I thought the same thing my friend bought a front and I had never heard of em. I just wanted to kno if anyone had used em cause they are about the price of Shinko's.

They make me think of the Tomahawk M1 and M3 tires. Where they use a carcass from a Michelin or Dunlop and then reapply rubber to the tire. I know the problem with the Tomahawks was the weight of the tire (sometimes twice the weight of the same size of most major manfs) which adversely affected the handling, and overall performance of the bike.

I know one of the mags did a comparo with the major manfs and the Tomahawks, prolly search around a bit and you can find it.

IMO - buy a good tire. After all, it is one of the most important things on your bike and not really a place you want to go to cheap. If you look around the net, you can find a good deal. I saw a set of brand new Pirelli Diablo Stradas on ebay a few weeks ago, 235 bucks for a front and rear shipped. And that was a 180/55 rear.

Ya I figured some cheap tires I wouldnt buy them. I am gonna get some Conti's or Metzler's

Based on that poor excuse for a website, I'm not sure I would even want to park next to someone with them on their bike. No contact information, and almost no information on the tires in general. What is piece of mind worth?

Add another for never heard of them.

I will let you know. There is one on the kat i just bought. So far i have no complaints. Only been a couple hundred miles thoigh. Seems to be okay in the turns. I am by no means a knee dragger though. I am more of a commuter bike rider. I take an occasional long ride with a group but nothing mpre than a couple hundred miles. And a lot of that is straight. Most twisties are on the Ortega highway. So i don't know how much i can really test it.
