    Bike setup & tire ?

    Hey guys, so I've had my Mille-R for 1 season now and love it. I have a questions regarding steering setup and tires. I have worn out the Michelin Power Pures that are currently on the bike. I felt like this season the bike was very difficult to steer, and somewhat blame the extra stiff (PO...

    Has anyone tried fitting a 200/55 rear tire on a Mille R?

    I just got me a smoking deal on a pair of Pirelli Super Corsa SPs, but I'm not so sure if the 200/55 rear tire I got would fit on my 2002 Mille R. Has anyone tried it? I currently have Dunlop GPs 190/55 on the rear and there's very little clearance between it and the chain.

    Metal shard in Tire

    I just pulled out a small metal shard that was about 4-5 millimeters deep out of my front tire/tyre :). How deep is the tread on the Pirelli Corsa's? They only have 1k miles on them so they should be thick enough to handle the "puncture" but I'm just wondering as I can't find my plugs and need...

    Height Adjustment from running 190/55 tire

    Does anyone running a 190/55 think lowering the bike a few mms would be beneficial in comfort? Sometimes I go on 2hour rides or longer and my back is killing me after. Maybe I'm just being a baby but I figured getting an adjustable link would level out to where it was originally. Just a...

    Which Tire Should I Get?

    The Uncle Crash R1 of Death needs new rubber to keep the shiny side up. I've got Dunlop 208 GPA's on there now. Not a bad tire, not a great tire either though. They take FOREVER to warm up (no tire warmers here), and they seem to break more easily than tires i've had in the past. I guess I could...
