For you Shinko guys, here is a real set of tires for a shinko price!
Pirelli Diablo Supersport tires $179.99 190/50X17 set!

But do they last as long as a Shinko? I bet I wouldn't get anywhere close to 7000+ miles out of that rear tire.
Don't get me wrong, it's a great price for what I'm sure is a really good performance tire. But, living in KS, the most action I see are the cloverleaf ramps on the highway...or the once-a-year trip to Eureka and/or the Dragon - and for that...the Shinko's are just fine. :2cents:
Yes, it's normal to get high mileage out of a Shinko 009 Raven. Several .oRgsters are running them.
Oh, and as far as the old lady comment?

Car tires work very well!
Car tires do work on the right type of bike, not advisable on a sport bike though.
