120/180 set needed cheap...

Post by DLSGAP » Mon Mar 04, 2013 8:50 am

Prefer Michelin, but open to Dunlop or pirelli. No plugs. Decent tread and no old date codes... Anyone got anything?

I have a couple sets of Q2's that have been thrashed a bit that I plan on replacing soon, 120/180 with plenty of tread but they are heat cycled pretty bad, couple of track days on each set.

When I pull them off I'll probably give them away for free with a warning, the rubber is hard.

They are fine for any "normal posted speeds riding", but I sure as hell wouldn't track them or try to take that 30mph turn at 90 on them. My 750 spins them up in a straight line where as fresh ones will lift the front wheel.

They are still on the rims, I haven't picked up a fresh set yet.

I'm in no rush. If the tread is good I may want them before I get my inspection done at the end of the month... But other wise no rush. I'm riding a stock fz8 and it's definitely not a track worthy toy. Commuting and occasionally some one wheel shenanigans will be it
