Whats a better tire for stock busa?..........

[tracks]

200 , 190 , 180 or does it matter?

I've read the skinnier meats will corner better, like the 180. but since I don't get much into the twisties too often, I've been running a 200.

Use a 190 on a stock Hayabusa.

The reason the "NEW" michelins feel better is because the Bridgestones were "OLD" and worn out. Put new Bridgestones on and they too will make your bike feel new again!

You should upgrade your tires dude, those PP 2cts are damn near a decade old now. Technology has left those things in the dust. Even Michelin has moved on with a replacement tire.

Thats what I have now and I love 'em.
Brigestones are the worst tires I ever bought.

I am running Bridgestone 023's and they rock!!! Just did over 400 miles in the pouring down rain at over 90 MPH most of the time and they were locked to the road! I ride them everyday on the bike and they feel good!!! You must have some older 016's or something more "Sport" oriented tire!!

I like the stock size 190.....turns great but still gives you enough contact patch to hook the beast up

Nothing better than Goodyear tire!

I think you took my post the wrong way. I'm not giving you advise on what tire to buy, I'm simply sharing facts that any new tire makes your bike feel like it's on steroids. Didn't matter whether you put new michelins or shinkos on, the feeling (which is about half mental) would have been the same "Wow".

Personally, if I were going to romp the canyons I'd much prefer Bridgestone BTO 15 or 16's that were down to the ware bars over a shinny new set of Pilot Roads (2s or 3s).
