Tires Pirelli or Maxxis
For what it's worth the factory tires on my cbr300 were shockingly shit. When warm, however, is like your bike being on a railroad track. I swear they are vacuum powered or something, best upgrade in feel/confidence in the world.
I just changed my Pirellis with Michelin last week. The Pirellis have amazing grip but for commuting they wore within a year. The Michelins that I just got are better for touring. So I would recommend the Michelins!
I put Pirelli Angel GT on my CBR500 and they were insane. Stuck like glue and held up pretty well in terms of wear. A good value pick in my opinion.
I put a pair of Rosso 3’s on a z900. Spectacular tires. Grippy and agile. But they do wear more quickly- after 6000 miles the rear was worn, and I’m not hyper-aggressive.
I just got some pirelli p zeros and they stick like glue
Pirelli Cinturato Velo or Hutchinson Challenger TLR. Both are faster, tougher and grippier than Gatorskins.
I mean, once i tried Pirelli i couldn't get any other brand. They are stupid expensive though and don't last as long as something like a Bridgestone. But tons of feedback.
Something XC like Maxxis ardent race or rekon race
My tires look the same on my CPO that I got 4 months ago :(
Mine did this within 10k miles.
