Tyre Homologation

  1. Hi all,
    About to replace my front tyre, Diablo rosso 11 (120/70ZR17)
    Oponeo list two, one at £74 and one at £76,
    Does anyone know if there is any difference either in the way they are identified or the legality in fitting !!
    Its to go on my 94 900ss
     
  2. The price difference appears to be free delivery or express delivery at cost. Not sure an H rated tyre is appropriate. I am sure you don't want to do more than 130mph but your bike is probably capable of more so a V rated tyre might be better. Andy
     
  3. Hi there, you need 120/70 ZR17 ROSSO 2 if you can get the "k" fitment it is the latest model and goes with all other rear models, other models are older and therefore maybe cheaper because of earlier build dates, as explained on other posts, the reason for online stockists being cheap is like mentioned before they buy administration stock from company going under as a primary resource
