Choosing The Best Motorcycle Tires

The primary part of any given vehicle is its tires, without which it is rendered unusable. They are subject to depreciation, and their durability is related to the manner of your maintenance. Before delving into the technical aspects of tires of motorcycles, lets try to understand the manner in which you can ascertain which tires suit you best.

The authorized dealer where you bought your motorcycle should be the best guide when you need recommendations about the tires you should use. Even the repair guys would give sound suggestions, and since both the parties have no personal interest in misleading you, their advice can be relied upon.

Apart from these guys, information can also be found in tire guides, journals, and the official website of the maker of the bike and on public forums. These will only help you subscribe to the information that you might have previously gained from any source.

A simple way to determine a good brand of tires is checking the brand that motorcycle competitors use in various competitions. If a brand you find is very common in use, you might want to have additional information on that given brand before trying out others.

Also, taking cues from the user manuals of your bike is greatly helpful. You won't exactly jump with joy if you buy some tires that do not suit the kind of bike you possess, and thus making a mess of your motorcycle ride and overall performance is something that won't excite you.

You must ensure that you grade the tires based on performance ability, their grip on the motorcycle, endurance, mileage, capacity to manage load, etc.

Obviously, the price is of importance as well. But don't buy cheap tires in haste. There are vast options to finance the tires which help reduce the immediate burden on your bank balance.

Under the assumption that you've made a good choice in tire selection and are content with it, lets now check out how to enhance their durability.

Even the best motorcycle tires, or tires of any vehicle, always have to endure dust, muddy roads, dragging, corrosions, etc. So it becomes very important to maintain their level to the optimum and derive the most you can get out of them. Given below are some good suggestions:
*Make use of a modest kind of detergent to clean the tires, and be sure to rinse them properly
*Refrain from using harsh chemicals which will only deteriorate their performance
*Make sure that you clean and wax the wheels every week. In case of an aluminum one, make use of a corrosion-free chemical to make it free of rust and give it the required spark
*Keep a check on the tires each time you ride it for atmospheric pressure
*Make it a habit to keep checking for the best motorcycle tires and the wheel for cracks, loose nut bolts, etc. to prevent accidents

Have a great ride!

Thinking at Moto Guzz?
Could someone please explain the thinking at Moto Guzzi? They have two models for sale, the V7 Racer and the 1200 Sport. Both nice looking bikes with a lot to commend them but the V7 Racer is supposed to be based on the original V7 of the sixties which had 70 BHP and could reach over 120 mph, today's example has 48 BHP and struggles to hit 115 mph, - not much progress in 40+ years and they call it a Racer? The 1200 Sport misses out on the USD forks and radial brakes fitted to other models. A Racer or Sport model from other manufacturers normally has an uprated specification to justify the tag, so what gives with the thinking at Moto Guzzi? I think Moto Guzzi is one of the best if not the best motorcycling company out there, but why don't they give us a real racer or sport model with decent power and nice bits of kit? Sorry but I just don't buy the pollution argument. Moto Guzzi have lost over 30% power on the V7 in 40 years?

whats the best motorcycle boots?
I'm taking the basic rider course for the DMV (it replaces the drivers test in california) and they require that i wear high ankle boots for the driving portion, as it provides protection for your ankles. i'm wondering if it's absolutely necessary to get specialized biker boots or if any pair with a high ankle will do. To give you an idea. I'm probably buying online, and i will most likely be using my bike to get me from place to place AND on a track day when i'm feeling adventurous. So i'm looking at street legal sports bikes, like the newer GSX R1000's, (since they also have a beginner mode as well). In case that helps determine what kind of boots to get. Oh, and feel free to recommend other types of gear too, but only if you tell me what kind of boots too. I'm looking for helmets, waterproof suits, but mostly boots for the time being. :) Oh yeah, and i'm a dude. Obviously, that means i wont be wearing women's boots.
