Question Thinking rear tire.

Something cheap to get me down the road a ways....
Shinko 712 140 90 15?

Saving for a bigger bike so I I'm being thrifty...
Anyone ever use a shinko tire? Are they as crappy as chen shin tires?

I noticed that one thread where dad was looking for tires for daughter and decided on
shinko front and rear but nothing else was said.

Hrm... used to use kenda's on my mountain bike... I wonder if they sell my size
motorcycle tire...

I always used the 140 Kenda Kruze on mine...Great performance & a good price.Even now on my V-star 1100 I use the same tire in a 170.

I put Shinkos on my Suzuki VZ 800 and they are doing nicely. Got a 3 inch nail in the rear after the first 800 miles and did a plug and patch and holding up very nicely 2,800 miles later. I like the feel just fine (had Metzlers both tire changes before).
