Then there’s the 100/80-17 front and 140/70-R17 rear set of tyres for bikes such as the Yamaha FZ series, Suzuki Gixxer series and even the Kawasaki Ninja 300. Lastly, 110/70-R17 and 150/60-R17 is a radial tyre set for motorcycles such as the KTM series, TVS Apache RR 310, Suzuki Gixxer 250 and the Honda CB300 R.
