Postby silver MZ-1000s » Tue Apr 04, 2017 9:20 am

Hi . Is anybody running 190 tire on the back of his MZ ? I would like to know how is the bike behaving with that size , what would you install ? 190/50/17 or 190/55/17 ? Any input ? Thanks . Also other question would be does anybody have power comander installed ? Does it improve the engine ?

I've never tried a 190, but I think turn in and over all handling would be better with a 180. I'm VERY happy with the way mine handles with a 180.
As to the power commander you will need to set it up on a DYNAMOMETER for best results.
I've been considering one for mine as well... maybe some day?

Not had a 190 on my MZ but I went down to a 180 on my speed triple. The handling was affected, it made it sharper, more pointy so I would imagine the opposite effect on the MZ with a 190. I went back to a 190 and won't do it again it made my flighty bike more so, 190 is a bit more stable for me.
