Shinko 777 tires for my 2017 CB1100ex

[GoldOxide_imp]

the testing between the D205 rear and the Shinko 777 rear is now completed.. it was very close as far as the miles ridden.. the D205 gave me 2700 miles.. the shinko 777 gave me 2600 miles.. the wear was quite different between the two brands of tires though.. I have been riding the same canyon roads.. my riding style hasn't changed.. tire pressures have been right where they should be.. hopefully Peter has the time and kindness to post pics of the two different wear patterns.. also, while replacing the worn shinko, I have decided to remove that protective rubber strip.. it had definitely migrated and the Schrader valve hole was covered up by it.. I then chose to give my rim a third coat of 3-m adhesive sealant, just ti be safe.. I have a few pics of that also.. the only test left now, is the mileage I get on the front shinko compared to the front D205.. ........ Chuckk j.

AS PER CHUCKK request










I have never had a touring tire on any of my bikes that only lasted 3000 miles... , in my case, this would result in replacing tire 2-3 times per riding season

Ouch.
