Currently I am using M7 rr on my svartpilen and alpha h1 on my 390 duke. These imported tyres are in a league of their own. I have ridden my 2 bikes back to back on the same road many times and the thing that stand out about the M7 is the grip and how easy it is to change direction, the effort required to ride fast on the m7 is much less than the h1. The only let down is the short life. I am tempted to get the rosso 3 for the duke but i am held back as my yearly ridding has reduced to almost 2k kms.

Hey... Thanks for sharing this with us. Yea... Metz, Pirelli and Michelin are in a league above. But they have also become quite expensive. Tvs, Apollo and other Indian manufacturers are some good options. 😎

Hey... Congrats for the new tyres. Thanks for stopping by on my channel and leaving a comment. I think Hunter makes around 27 Nm of torque so I guess it should be able to do 17-19 K kms. Bikes with high torque really eat up tyres 😛😛😛

Hai Highway to Hill..,.....,. You know I am using R3.,.I rode 18k on metzeler stock tyre... 65% is burnt out., If money doesn't matter, which tyre should i buy in ur opinion??? I am 50 years old and keep the speed in highway between 80 to 140. Getting 24.4 to 25.6 milage. The last R3 in Kerala. If money doesn't matter, what will be the best tyre for me??? Didn't Ride even a single kilometer in gutter road... He is that much precious to me..... The chain was tighten only once.., Among my 4 bikes, my precious diamond is my all and all R3. 0 maintenance.....

Michelin Road 5 is great.... Expensive!

Im looking to change the tyres of my r15 v3 and came across your channel. The front tyre size 100/80 r17 and rear is 140/70 r17. Im looking for the apollo s1 140/60 r17 and apollo h1 110/80 r17 for the front as i want steel radials this time. Will this create any issue in regards to balance and overall handling? Im a bit concerned about this and cant make up my mind. Thanks in advance.

I would suggest not to mix 2 different tyres for front and rear. Either go with both S1 or both H1. If you are worried about the size, one size up by 10 mm is not going to cause any issues. I hope this helps.

Hello Brother, you seem amazingly experienced and do help me out on this one query if you can: If money is no matter, what tyre is the best for good and bad conditions? Should I go for road 5 or Protorq extreme or any other? My riding is low, no touring, so no problem if it doesn't last, no problem if it costs a lot. But I want it to perform great in dry conditions as well as wet/bad roads with sand as i am in Bangalore which can have sudden rains / sand on a corner that I'm slightly leaned in. Thanks in Advance!

Heya, i need your quick answer as i am going to order tvs protorq extreme. The retailer told me that he can give me 2 different sizes 140 and 150 but the difference is that the front tyre is 110/70 in Z rating and the rear (140/70) is H. He says i can mix match the speed rating in case if i wanna stick to the recommended size. I aint rigid anymore so going woth 150/60 is also ok with me. now tell me which one shall i order. my ride is just about 5000 kms amd that too only Highways.

I haven't used the Pilot Street 2 so not sure about those tyres. However, I have heard good reviews. Also, in this video I just wanted to focus on Indian companies. Thanks for your comment.

We need to compare these with equivalent Pirelli Rosso-3 and Metzeler M9RR which are pretty much the performance benchmarks (there are Pirelli Rosso Corsa-2, Super Corsa-2, Metzeler Racetek etc but I am looking for a comparison of mostly the more commonly used tyres).

If you like having fun in the corners regularly, then yes. My friend and I have been thrashing the Protorq Extremes on our V3's for the last few months and are very satisfied, apart from the soft tyre edges wearing out within 4000km of constant hill riding. The center is still alright though, and I think I can get 8000km out of them if I stop cornering and just do casual highway touring. I heard the Alpha H1's mess up the handling of the V3 a little due to their stiffness and weight, but I am yet to test and confirm this, but their advantage is they last twice as much as the Protorq Extremes.

Bro i am leaning towards the apollo based on your feedback for my cbr 250r , was looking michelin pilot street radials which is a tried n tested but apollo with new waters i guess if it lasts 20k km then its worth it.
