Forza Needs New Tires.

[davenowherejones]

The Shinko tire was made in Korea. It seems just like any other tire. No problems.

The 2014 Forza 300 does not have enough power for the tire to be a problem. The brakes are relatively weak so they do not over power the tire.

The speedometer being off is a nuisance. Where does the Forza get the speed from?

I never used to hit the rev-limiter and now it is easy to do.

The 60 series tire is interesting but I would not recommend it.

One other thing about the 60 series tire. I will have to re-calibrate my thinking on fuel range. It can be a long way between gas stations around here. I will have to fill up more often.

Did you check M Speed Performance in Vancouver for Pirelli tires ?

M Speed appear to handle racing tires only. Never heard of them.

I now have 3270 km on the Shinko 60 series tire.

It seems good as a tire but it is a pain to always try not to hit the rev-limiter.

I try to personally ride at about 8000 rpm on the highway. That is too slow but bouncing off the rev-limiter can not be good for the engine.

I have no idea how long the tire will last but it will be gone sooner than I usually keep them.

What next? Conti? I have no money. I am trying to get a disability pension but that will not be enough money to live.
