My bike came with Perelli Scorpian AT MT90's and I am happy with them. Not sure of cost and availability though

I am also looking for pure street tires ... The Michelin Sirac has the better sidewall tread of those I've seen so far.
Any1 actually tried em? Or seen a similar street tyre?
The TM33/34 needs tweeking but I'm still on the first tank O gaz. So I'll wait a bit

Yeah, I've got a pair of Michelin Siracs on my KDX125, I used my bike purely on road for about a year (while I was sitting my bike test in 2003) & they were great even when the KDX125 is a light bike... & were not to bad off road either...

Have a look at: https://www.kawasakiforums.com/forum...ad.php?t=32115 You can see pics of the tires fitted on my KDX125 at the end of that page.

Thanks BIG-ED I recall from looking last week they go 80/90-21 and 100/80-18 and the Siracs have slightly larger numbers. Are they gonna rub?

I put those same tires on my KLX250S maybe 6 months ago. I'm assuming the sizes are still available. Regardless, they're more costly than the Shinko and Kenda's others have suggested.

Cell phone talkin SOB nearly got me this morning.
I'm gonna price more traction. Cause the rear locked as soon as I touched it. If he hadn't been completely absorbed in his call he might have stopped and I'd be in the hospital.. Instead I'm here at work.
