Poll.......Which one of the two tires?

[AzHonda]

I am torn between the two for my XL250 "trackerish" build. This bike will mainly be on the road 70% of the time. It's just the "look" factor that I can't make a decision on. Rear wheel is 18" and front is 21".

Shinko 244 Motorcycle Tire
or

Shinko 705 Motorcycle Tire

And here is the bike so far.....

Thanks for your opinions.

I personally like the 705

Yup! The 705 is much more aggressive looking!

705's will give you a smoother, quieter ride (tire noise anyway) but still look like they have enough bite that if you do go in the soft stuff you won't instantly get stuck.

705's it is. I was leaning towards those but still just couldn't get the 244's off my mind.

Thanks for the feedback guys.

I've had the 244 on the front. They're rubbish. The smaller inner knobs wear at a much greater rate than the rest of the tire and create a nice vibey feel. Plus, they are pretty useless in the mud.

yeah those 705's are sweet, you'll like them
