208 gp or 208 zr? TAKE OFFS?PyRo1509 12-08-2003, 07:15 AM Should i go for the 208 gp or zr, i do go up highway 9 all the time but the road is no where close to perfect (potholes left and right) and has anyone ever bought a race take off tire? im woundering if this would be ok for daily riding. ckhangR6 12-08-2003, 07:21 AM get the D207RR. You'll like it... D208ZR sucks on colder weather. R6 Matt 12-08-2003, 07:39 AM The 208zr is a SLICK tire on cold roads.... or when not properly warmed up. I won't buy another. I constantly side around corners when I least expect it... kinda feels like I'm riding on grease.

Contrary with street tyres, they will heat up throughout the whole tyre so you won't end up on a cold spot whne you lean over from time to time.
I buy take off all the time, only pay what it's worth though, some 'look' ok but are flattened too much on 1 side and make you "fall" over fast. | |
