www.partsforscooters.com/154-115_Vee_Rubber_Tire?sc=34&category=132957Recently purchased this tire due to my old one wearing out no real reviews could be found on the specific model but have heard decent things about the tire. I put it on over the weekend and have driven my scoot in light rain 2 times and it feels alot better than my Shinko tire I had. Way more grippy but I feel as though its a hair skinnier. The sidewall is shorter but the tread is more round and taller. It makes my bike lean alot more on the same corners but it feels good around them. Here in a few weeks ill be ordering another for the front. I will update this thread here and there to give a more in depth review of how it holds up and handles in various conditions along with how long it lasts miles wise. Overall though first impressions are good. 75mph speed rating tread pattern is sporty and similar to the Michelin bopper tires and the ride is nice and smooth way smoother than the old back tire and also more quiet. As of now though its looking like a good tire for the price and a very nice upgrade over most tires out there.

Well the tire is still holding up well and has some of the nubs on it from when It was new. I have somewhere around 1000 miles or so on it so no complaints as of yet and it looks like the tread isn't even wearing down. I've been through quite a few heavy rains now and still no loss of traction even on hard launches so I'm more than happy about that. Its currently hurricane season down in Florida and the roads turn into rivers when we get a good rain so its not like it was kinda damp it was a downpour the last few times it rained. So if your looking for a cheap quality tire thats good in most every road condition with a high speed rating this might be your answer. I know if these are around if and when I need new tires again they already have my money.
