Opinions on this are like ar*holes,everyone s got one My take on it is 190/55 everytime, same profile as the 180 but more contact patch. The 50 profile is a very old design harking back to when these Apes were current, were it now I'm pretty sure Aprilia would probably say something different. Other,probably more track biased riders will say a 200 section or maybe a 180/60? profile probably as I think that size is the control tyre used for some racing classes and they use scrubs. |
