The tires they are selling are probably SAVA SLICKS. SAVA makes 10 inch slick ,but I don't know the exact tires sizes.

The front looks farout but maybe OK but we're for the most part running 145/50 10's. That 120/80 10 seems kind of narrow to me or am I missing a larger size tire on the list. OK Blitz you're the go-to guy what's your opinion thinking_smilie

I like the wide tire for the looks but a slick tire doesn't have to be that wide to perform well.Look at the motogp 125's and 250cc's.Looks like there riding on bicycle tires.bluelaugh My 130/70-10 looks just as wide as the stock rear tire.But a full out slick dude i'm on it.thumbsup2

I wouldnt mind a narrower tire in the rear it will just get yuou thru the twisties a bit faster. Swheels is right I have the 130/70-10 also and it actually looks just as wide as the stock and is a bit taller so it looks alot nicer! I also added the tt91 to my front yesterday and it looks awesome but when braking really hard it will rub the bottom of the fairing a bit! If those slicks will fit and someone can get ahold of the guy then that would be great!

Bri i bet the bike rides so much better. At high speeds i use to look over at the front wheel and watch the tire vibrate back and fourth.bluelaughI also thought man these guys are going like 70 to 80mph on these.No thanks.

my tires stuck like glue, mostly
i was way more confident leaning hard with them
i would also like a set of slicks to try
i just realised that my tire pressure was high on raceday
like 40-50 lbs

Anybody try to put a 120/80 10 tire on a rim yet? How much are the tires? There are no prices on his site.
