Oh yea! took the bike through the woops many times! Harsh for sure but the street handling is fantastic! Im also running the Dizzys 120/70/17 front and 150/60/17 rear. Not the greatest for real of road but its ok...I have the shinko244 for that and even its not like a true knobby!

 

If you ride dirt more I have a set of s wheels off my 2012 I would trade for 17s?

 

Im running dual sport diztanzia 130/80/17. 120/70/17 sumo up front great street but great in dirt (deeper rear lugs for diggig)

 

I'm in the process of trying to buy a set of "S" wheels from another member right now... I don't want to sell my 17s just incase I might wanna do a little knee draggin...

 

Im running the sumo compound rear...I didn't know the non sumo had deeper lugs?!?!

 

Oh hell yeah it does, much deeper lugs. Not as sticky on the street obviously, but that means it wear better too.

 

I know pictures are not that great to see something like that...but it looks exactly like mine! I checked online and couldn't see any difference in the lug or tread depth, only rubber compound. Where did you find this info?

 

Look at my front tire, its the supermoto compound, lugs are a lot less deep. I could he assuming the sumo rear is the same

 

Yea, my front is the same as yours and lugs look deeper in the rear...but I think it may be an optical illusion!

 

Post a pic!
