I recently purchased a pair of Sakura Street shark tires. Does anyone here have any experience with them? I haven't mounted them yet. What kind of performance should I expect? I'd prefer to hear only actual experience. Thanks guys

I havent used them but I can tell you...

Be CERTAIN to "scuff in" your tires... Ride carefully for the first 100 miles, try and vary the type of road you ride on. Get them well broken in before going all out on them  :thumb:

Thanks, this will be my first new set of tires, they are actually going on an '89 ninja 600r. Don't worry I also have a '99 gs500. I picked up the ninja as a project, but I looove my GS. I realize these tires are cheap as hell but they look pretty decent, I will definitely break them in for awhile before I hit any twisties.
