They say, 'Good shoes take you to good places', and just like that, the motorcycling equivalent to that is, 'Good tyres take you to good places, and in one piece.' The last bit holds a lot of importance because tyres are the only thing that connects a motorcycle to the road. The sooner you realise that, the better it is. In the current market of two-wheelers, there are a lot of brands offering all sorts of styles. While that's a good thing, what does get compromised is the quality and type of tyre for a particular application. And it doesn't take much time for an experienced rider to realise the limitations of the motorcycle due to average tyre performance, which eventually robs the joy of motorcycling.
