Overhaul : Part 2 The tyres...

Thinking of changing my tyres as the thread s are almost gone. The only brand and series that pop up in my mind was Bridgestone, the Battlax series. Why? Because i've tried one on my TZM and it really sticks.

Asked my mech to find me a pair of Battlax but he failed. And so did the other shops in the whole state. They were all out of stocks. I called up all the bike shops and only one said yes. But when i reached there, all he got was the Brigdestone Cyrox.

Last resort was to trouble my bro. Called up a famous sparepart shop in the land of sparepart shops and the boss confirmed he has the one i wanted. I used to be a loyal customer.
Bridgestone Battlax BT-090. Radial. Classed under the middle-sport.
110/70R17 front and 150/60R18 rear. A little oversized for the rear. Just nice.
My brother got them for me. A big thanks for him.

Battlax BT-090 Radial & BT-090 Radial Pro

"Refined by using the latest technologies from Bridgestone, the BT-090 is perfect for aggressive riding on both circuit and street. The rigidity of the tyre induces better contact feel in corners, especially for slide control during races. The new compound and pattern offer improved grip and handling in both wet and dry conditions, with better high speed stability and anti-shimmy performance ensuring a smooth ride."
