Cheng Shin Tyres
Green1:
Whats it like in the rain Julie? As I can guarantee it is goint to rain every time I get the bikes out.
I did have some on a transit van they gripped OK but didn't last long

Not tried them in years. I would bet that they have learned a thing or two in those years. They were not too awful back then. I think I had them on a gs125 and we used them on the wifes car, til it had a seized gearbox mid drive and did a triple rollover skid. - we went off trying to save pennies after that, though to be fair to the tyres, it was a gearbox lockup, not much we could do about it.

Stick to your Contis if you plan on going out in the rain Mick 😁😁😁 I got caught out in the rain once or twice on the 400/4 and still got home in one piece with no problem but no, not the best tyre for water sports 😀😁😁

Lovely soft compound which is what I like and it sticks to the road like shit to a blanket. I ride the 400 hard and have 100% confidence in the front tyre, will defo buy another when time to replace. I should add I don't have one of these fitted to the rear, I would wear it out in 500 miles 😀😀😀

I don't normally make more than 1 comment but in this case I will make an exception. Lets be blunt, the Cheng Shins that were on my 750 were shite in the extreme so just don't do it. The only thing holding you to the road, 2 very small patches of rubber. Value your life and pay a bit more for decent tyres. Try the matching back tyre Julie you will see what I mean. As for going out in the rain on them, are you mad. DONT BUY THEM.
