Vee Rubber tire mounted and ready for action
I mounted the Vee Rubber chinesse 190/50-17 today. It's the soft compound. $82 dollars. Going to try it out on the Turbo Busa Thursday night after work at test & tune. I will let you know how it does. looks really good. It's very wide and has a large contact area like a Shinko hook up.

Local shop here. I see them on Ebay $79.99 or $138 for a front and a back tire.

Let me know how you like them. Local distributor wants us to stock them but no one wants to be the guniea pig....you know how it is....nothing has people more superstitious than tires and oil.

You didn't by chance get to weigh the tire yet did you?

No I did not think to weigh the tire before I put it on. Making 7 pounds of boost I rode it around to try and get a few street miles on the bike. My bike is 68" inch wheelbase and after a few long 4th gear rolling burnouts it started to bite on the street, I will say this it howls pretty loud while it's spinning. I will try it out thursday night and report back.

Hahaha that's the one thing I miss about the turbo power, it would do the most ridiculous rolling burn outs lol
