shinko slick

[dragonbusa]

Just got my shinko slick, never ran a slick before, any body that has use one care to give any do"s and don"ts. I"m running a bar and strute. Brake in? burn out? PSI? I belive this my be my ticket to the 5s. 6.26 spinning through 1st gear. If it hooks, its on!

KINDA MOVE TIRE AROUND LITTLE when heating so you heat the entire think.

I only made a few passes on mine 25psi and still hooked great, but the bike was faster and mph higher with the u-soft. but I didn't break the slick in or anything just a good smoker and good to go, if you spin with this tire somthin else aint right on the bike

I run that slick, 18 lbs of air cold. and it doesn't take much spinning to get it hot. its a great tire!

Isnt that what the NHRA pro stock bikes run?

 

[afterhours]

i could not find a pic of an M/T slick in 17 inch. it is the best tire you put on a bike. it is not roadrace tire, its a real wrinkle wall drag race tire......

the shinko stealth is a good tire, for the price......not as good as the M/T but much cheaper and last longer.

the shinko slick, is not even comparable to a real slick....the M/T is better and only cost $185.00.

like afterhours said, I was looking for info from poeple with exp. with the shinko. I allready mounted the shinko, Ive never run a slick and just wanted some tips on running that tire. I"m not runing for $$$ or points, just for kicks. $123.00 dropped at my door,if it will hook I"ll be happy. thanks for the in put

i am not trying to rain on anyones parade....run it, have fun and when you need another tire give it a try......the biggest thing about the M/t slick is its flat,puts 2-3 times more rubber on the track and it hooks everywhere....even on a poorly prepped track.

Let us know how it works for you

that tire is a waste of time and money, no one is buying it, stop selling it!
