bridgestone 023's.

Postby Arkup » Tue Nov 23, 2010 1:38 am

I am looking for a new set of tyres for the ZRX. Has anyone used the 023 Bridgey's. and what sort of KM expectancy can I expect?? Me and my missus are doing a trip to Tassie in early Jan for a few weeks so I am getting the bikes set up a bit. Previously I have used the 020's with complete confidence. The rear tyre looks good as far as pattern goes, the front is a heap different to the 020 was.
I rang around probably 8 bike shops in Sydney and Newcastle yesterday chasing the Pilot road 2's, which were my original choise but nobody has got the 180/55/17 rears, plenty of fronts and 190 rears but. Problem with Importer maybe?? I cant fit a 190 tyre on my missus bike ( suzuki GSR 600), which is a top little unit, sort of a comfortable GSXR 600 with a little less grunt.... She likes it, and I don't really want to go the 190 on the ZRX either. The 180 seems big eneough for it.

:kuda:
Cheers,
Arkup.

I've got an 023 on the front and an 021 on the rear. The rear has done 10000k and has some left. Only done a few thousand k on the front but its all good.
That is why God made fast motorcycles, Bubba.... Hunter S. Thompson.
