Pros: the tire is good if you dont ride hard in the mountains. its a strait line tire and you can get alot of milage out of it
Cons: i dont feel safe going hard into turns. the tires wants to slip. the tire does not get sticky like the michlin pilot powers or the bridgestone battle ax's, i wouldn't recommend it to anybody that rides hard unless you live where its flat and there isn't many turns

Shinko's rule!
By One-Shot from Washington, DC on 04/08/2009
Pros: I use the stock sized front tires and a 200 series rear. My bike is stretched 6" and lowered 2" all around. I get incredible holeshots and have been able to keep up with the best around all corners/turns. They look wider than they are and give a better feeling of stability at high 160+ speeds.
Cons: None
Comments: Will be a Shinko customer forever!

Worth evry pennie!
By Zack from Livermore, CA on 08/01/2008
Pros: There are several reasons this tire works for me;
good traction,
good looks,
good handling &
great price....
What more can I say!
Cons: As wih all tires they're a lil slippery when you first get'em. So be careful when breaking them in or else you'll feel like your on a slip-&-slide...

Tired to kill me
By Jose from Gainesville, FL on 04/18/2008
Pros: Seem to last long and do decent on the rain.
Cons: If you plan to do any serious sport riding, do NOT get these tires. I was getting into the shoulders or the tire and it just completely gave out under the turn. these tires are horrid and i have zero faith in them now
Comments: Like i said, heavy sport riding, can do way better. Very flat compared to other spot tires. Can get power pilots for not much more and they will do you much better
