My Like also came with the Kenda tires. Just over 9,000 miles and going strong. I don't ride on wet pavement if I don't have to. I hear Kenda aren't the tire to use for wet roads.

Are Likes the bikes w/ a hard to find tire size?

That may explain the Kenda's

No, that's the rear Forza tire. It uses a Dunlop tire and size that , in the States, is only available from Honda dealer. More offerings across the pond....but so far not here. Most try fitting a bigger tire, or go back to the dealer.

 ;)Thanks!

I was just posting on an S-8 thread, and that bike has the same issue as your Forza. There is only one (100.00 USD) tire that fits.
I thought perhaps the Like had the same...

Now I'm curious as to why the Like has Kendas, and all other kymco's have Chen Shins?

If you ride much in the wet - give some thought to City Grips - on advice from veterans here, I replaced the Kendas at 440 miles.

Southern California here.  Wet?  What's that?  Not a thought with your crazy weather.  I guess my tire pressure is adequate, so I'm watching this new tank of gas to see if I will have better news to report this go around.
Why lose weight, buy more horsepower......
