EX500 tires

[Pittenger5]

What are you proddie twin guys running for tires? I need to change mine. I use michelins on everything I have now, but they dont have much of a variety, I think just pilot powers. Its what Im running on the EX now, but is there something better or are the powers adequate?

[McBiggity]

the fast guys use dunlops.
I've been using pirelli's. Pete as well.
the pirelli's were good enough for me.

[Hardcore]

it's a fuckin EX, you could use rubber bands held togeter with bubblegum + toothpaste for fucksake + still feel work ok !!

[OreoGaborio]

you can get the powers into the sub 1:30's I bet.

[Pittenger5]

Haha, well MY powers are lucky to get into the mid 1:30s. The ones I have now are starting to get shagged, so I figured Id get some new ones for the second half of the season. Didnt know if there might be something better, or if people used race tires or something, I dunno. And yes, I need to stop overthinking things, it IS just an ex.

What you need to do Is Do the extended Swingarm Mod ,Chrome that Bitch out. Recoonect the horn And get on of those cool leather Vests.

That will get you in the sub 1:30's

lol i hear the vest alone is enough to knock off a couple seconds at least...handling is vastly improved by the swingarm extension as long as its at least 10".

thats why the cool ppl do it

Get myself all sorts of neon, you see how that shit works on my street bike. Some custom paint. 300 series tire on the back, christ. Forget the powers THATS where I gotta spend my money

[RyanNicholson]

Some custom paint.

i have custom paint on my street bike, but i made money by doing it lol

anyway...sorry....way

[Pittenger5]

I have an LED kit on my street bike. Adds 15 horsepower so the salesman told me.

Although I still like the idea of spinners on my ex with the dollar sign spinner. I need to think about that one. That momentum might help me coming out of corners.

I'm about to try the Dunlops for the first time after running Pirelli's. I'll let you know how it goes.

IMO you're about to make the best decision of your life.

at least from my experience anyway

[Karaya One]

Pilot Power Race Soft.

[Pittenger5]

I was thinking about the power race, do those have any trouble in the rain or anything? I doubt the ex would have too many problems with its lack of horsepower, but I dont have spare wheels for it so they need to go both ways.

[TheIglu]

Then you can't use race tires. Race tires are for dry ONLY. They are like ice in water.

Stick with PP's if you need a tire that can do both.

[Pittenger5]

Powers it is. Thanks guys

I loved the power race tires on my EX (actually, it may have been the tire before the power?). I did a 20 flat on them, then I mounted Pirellis and did about the same. Dunlops always chattered for me around 23
