On the hurricane i just picked up, the previous owner had some maxxis tires put on. They're actually the same model and sizes as my ninja 500 has. 110/70/17 and 130/70/17

I keep reading very positive reviews about the Michelin Pilot Road 2s (radials). Did anyone have a chance to try them yet?

Currently running Bridgestone Battlax BT45 and due for a change. The Dunlop501s are not an option. I'm only debating between sticking with the Bridgestones (bias ply) or going the Michelin route.

Dalex, how do you like the BT45''''s on yours?

I got mine with a 120/70/17 front and 160/60/17 rear Pirelli Diablo set. not a bad tire at all.

I''''m considering the BT45''''s and a few others in a 110/80/17 and 140/80/17 or 150 rear for mine.

Just a side note, the 160 WILL fit the rim, but is not a good size because it is too wide and becomes pinched in the rim, creating potential handling issues.

same for the 120 front.
