Shinko

[shadetree57]

Just ordered a Shinko rear tire for the Busa. It's a Raven. Has anyone had one and how did they do? The front looks good so I thought I'd try this tire to at least get me through till next summer. Give me a little feedback if you can. Thanks.

I bought a rear and haven't had any problems!

I have the 005 on the rear and like it. Bike Bandit has a sale on now with no tax for Ca. residents. rear about $100.00 and front for $69.00. I bought 2 rears and a front.

I've been running Ravens for a couple years now. I'm really happy with 'em. About 7,000+ miles out of a rear.

My friend's 1 week old front Shinko tire ripped on the sidewall while riding 60mph. He was riding a Hyosung 650 & did not hit anything. He went down hurting his back & has been off bikes for 2 months now. Is the cheaper Shinko really worth the risk?

I've had my Shinko's (005 - front and rear) over 170MPH without any problems

Isn't Shinko the same company as Yokohama ?

It would be nice if they made a 210 in the 005's ....
