Oh man ! I suppose you should understand ALOT about tires then ... And here is one question i can't seem to find a GOOD answer , which is - does changing tire size 1 up ( front from 110/70 to 120/70 and rear from 150/60 to 160/60 ) would have a big impact on grip ? That would be on my soon to be Ninja 400 , hope to get an answer and thank you for you time reading !

@gordonblackley8863

5 жыл бұрын

Cig4ras It would give no positive effect on grip, but would very likely give a negative effect on the handling. The reason behind this is that contrary to common belief friction is completely unrelated to surface area. The main reason for larger tyres on powerful bikes is heat dissipation. A 125 race bike will corner faster than a super bike on their narrow tyres. Oversized tyres on the same rims will alter the profile from the design, so will give unpredictable handling. I hope that helps 😊

Dude... You've really stepped up the in depth detail on this channel. It's always been interesting but it seems lately you're going more in depth with technical things average consumers aren't privy to. Hopefully your future "what is the best super sport, hypersport, sport touring, touring tire for my bike" follows this trend with details and examples of how each tire performs in each situation. I think many people would be surprised to see a sport touring tire would handle just fine with most average riders even on a track day where they get hot. But just telling them that and reading the company brochure for each tire doesn't prove that to anyone. Thanks for the great videos lately and I can't wait to see what's next.

It is true I think. The reason is that OEM tyres have a different compound which is specifically made to get better ratings at safety relevant tests for example the stability of the tyre an so on. However I don’t think it’s so bad that you have to get an instant replacement, just use your OEM tyres up if your buying a brand new motorcycle. The first set of new tyres will bring the better quality anyway. 🙂

Great video Ryan. Loved the old Bridgestone S21's on my ZX10R except when they met building site litter on a drive way and picked up a nail. That aside, great sport road tyre you can also have fun on at the track without the need for tyre warmers. People might hark on about the Pirelli's but in my experience I just seem to burn through the rear too quickly. Also the S21 /S22 have a profile which tips but is very predictable and very easy to change direction in lean if needed which is great on the road. Anyway - the info presented was very well done and informative and the out take - funny. Thanks.
