How to make a gen 2 the best bike you ever owned

[fiend]

Where did you find them?

Anyone know what the new tire replacing them is?

Its a power one supersport. The pro street guys I have seen use them weren't impressed with them from what I can tell.

Its the supersport, michelin has really messed up on this one, I'm going to get the power cup

I think for the street ur tire will be perfectly fine.

And the little arm

Well so far I love that tire. It's working great.

You wont have any issues pop up with that tire until you crank the boost up and see some serious top end speed...that's when(if it in fact does)it will start to spin. But being that your WB is relatively "short" you should be OK running around like you have been.

That appears to be the new and better tire taking the Power One place.....BUT....it currently doesn't come in a 190/50...only 55-series...

Yes I am aware of that. I guess you missed the point I was trying to convey. Its ok,you will learn...hopefully not the hard way.

Just put on a Power Supersport in 190/50 Josh,i heard they stiffened up the sidewalls but don't know if they changed the compounds from the Power One(though i too heard the Pro Street guys aren't impressed).

Thats because it was intended for road racing. As far as I know you can only get the real race compound, not like the power one where you could get both the street and the race versions. You will not find real race tires from shops that order from places like parts unlimited. You will have to find a place that sells race tires, typically at a track. They are even hard to find online.

 

[Got-Busa?]

Let me know when you find someone selling them online...

mizemobile and sportbiketrackgear are the only ones that I know of. You may have to call. Ah hell, I need one myself anyway. I'll let you know.

I am really happy with the super sport.. and so far with my revalved rear shock Frank Dialed in my Bike amazing.. the front comes up a little so far but squats and goes.. and from What ive heard from other ppl they over look the rear shock and once they change it. it makes a world of difference..

I did some racing and playing on Sunday. It was over 90 degrees and really humid. Well I was in 1st gear going about 30 MPH and hit it. Bike kicked out. The ground was to hot. Had traction issues.

You sure that's not too much power issue?
