Just like the title says, Buell shows these as a fitment on their accessory book but these are the same tires that come on the Uly. Anyone have experience with these? I see some XB guys have run them with success. And dont bother asking why I am even considering them. | ||

Well, most of us Uly riders don't get much more than 4,000 miles out of a rear, so I'd guess rapid wear will be your chief problem.  Otherwise, great tires, plenty sticky, and very good in the rain. | ||

I've always had good luck out of Pirelli tires. If I were going to be putting tires on my 1125, it would either be sticking with the Diablo Corsa IIIs or if you want an ST tire...the Diablo Stradas or Michelin Pilot Road 2CT. | ||

Not the best choice for a track day beyond novice, but probably a decent commuter tire. Just don't forget they are on there and try and go peg scraping under throttle like you could with Diablo's or some other race (live hard, die young) tire. I can get 5k plus out of a rear sync on my XB9. The 1125 will no doubt eat them a lot faster. | ||

Syncs wouldn't have been my 1st choice, but they came on my XB9SX. Actually, I was pretty impressed with their grip. Rear was toast at 5,500. At 8,000 miles the front still had tread in the center, but the sides were quite bald. Even so, it still stuck pretty well. | ||

I am running them now. I also have an XB9SX that came stock with them and I find them to be quite adequate. I had this set installed at about 5,000 miles on the Corsa IIIs....they were stepping out way too easily. I then did a track day on the Syncs, and was able to push to MY limits without any issues from the bike or the tires. At this time I have about 6,000 miles on them and feel quite confident in them still. I get about 8,000 miles on them on my XB9SX. try em, you might like em | ||

syncs are ok on an 11, but like reep said, don't go draggin' toe and opening that thing to 75% throttle in third gear, it'll spin up and come right around... don't ask me how I know... If you're real lucky, you might even stay on the bike... don't ask me how I know... |
