Pilot Power 3's

Postby SNAFU » Mon Feb 03, 2014 5:36 pm

G-day everyone.
Well today I fitted my first set of Pilot power 3's. Instead of the 190/50ZR17 on the rear I fitted a 190/55ZR17. The reason I did this was that the combo of a front 120/70ZR17 and rear 190/55ZR17 was that I found that this allows the bike to tip in faster and adds to the stability coming out of the corner.

TTFN Dutchy. :D

Is he taking the slippery coating off with an air grinder?

I think its a power grinder, and that's something I've never seen! :?

Plus I think the rear wheel is spinning. :shock:

Just go for a ride. :D

That is right guy's, the back wheel is spinning and it was raining here today, so cleaning the crap off the back wheel was a good idea for heading out!
