Shinko Tires
Anyone ever use them? I read some good and bad things on here about them but thought I would ask if by chance they improved a bit....... a set for my 2000 Heritage would be around $165.00, and that's for white walls. But as the saying goes, you get what you pay for............. just curious.

I had bought a front shinko tire for my night train at the beginning of last season and I haven't any problems with it at all. I did a bunch of research before I bought it and read a lot more good about them than bad. It seems like crotch rocket guys have been using them for a long time.
Here is a little info about shinko and how they bought all of there stuff from Yokohama.

I was going to say that they began where Yokohama motorcycle tires left off.
I run the 777. In fact, I took off a perfectly good 712 off the rear to do 777s front and back on my 1200S.
Some complain about poor mileage. That means they are rather soft... just the way I want them.
