190's ?
« on: July 08, 2008, 04:04:18 PM »
Has anybody tried a 190 rear on the B King? I have run a 180 on a Gixxer1000 and a 190 on a ZX12r and both times the bike seemed to turn in quicker and handle better overall. Just wondering if anybody had tried it yet on the King. Gonna be getting some tires soon and will probably try one then.

Just ordered a set of Pirelli Supercorsa Pro's SC1 with a 190/55 rear. I am headed to Deal's Gap on Sunday so I'll let you know how the perform on the 318 curves in 11 miles. :wink:
