Shinko rear - Fred Butts FL
Recommended by Reviewer: Yes
Pros: Inexpensive well made tire
Cons: Not a top rated as the expensive ones.
I nned to put some miles on this tire to really evaluate it.I put it on and road 500 miles to Daytona for Bike Week and back.I really need to get out this Sunday and see how it handles at speed.Nice looking tire that I hope will last at least 3k miles. If it handles well and lasts the 3k I will buy it again.
Not impressed with the apex - Elvenhome WI

Pros: Wears like a brick, good for commuting,
Cons: Very limited grip cold and hot when pushing tire in corner
Coming from Pilot Power 2ct to this tire is a royal smack in the face. I have had 005 shinkos on a honda F4 and love them. I Bought the 010 figuring they added more contour to the tire like they claimed, im not impressed. These tire slide like your on sand anytime your leaned over and add a fair amount of throttle. Granted when they do slide its predictable and controllable if you dont freak out and just ride it out. Ive put maybe 800-1000 miles on them commuting 90 miles a day, along with a few twisty roads and I want to throw them away and put the 2cts back on or get another 005 set for commuting. No way would I use these for anything more then commuting tire or for someone that never sees anything close to the edge of their tire.
