Pirelli SL-26 are the ones I use and I'd highly recommend them to anyone. They have great grip and feel like riding on air compared to stock tires.

If i would have known about these other tires I wouldn't have rushed to get Kendas for my scoot,,was playing around in the walmart parking lot last night and felt the back tire sliding a little,it might be because i had some chicken strips left on the side about 3/4" and they where a little greasey there,,Ill have to try it again now that I scuffed the tire all the way across,tires where warm also,,just think I will go with Michelin's next time.

Thats great! I bought the same tires last week but in 13's, its prob. a good thing that everybody persuaded me to spend the extra money for the Pirelli. What really sucks is that, I ordered my tires from the same place on Thursday as well, my tires ain't here yet...

[replyingto=lonesloper]lonesloper[/replyingto]I bought a set of Vee's and they are head and shoulders a better tire than factory at a good price too.
