Michilin City Grip tires
« on: June 24, 2020, 07:58:45 AM »
I noticed that Michilin City Grips are not available in 140/70-12 size in the US but are available in Italy.  Looks like Michilin Pure Power is available in the correct size though.
In parts 200S and Grand Vista and my motorcycles 2 CS BMW'S and one GS BMW.

Sold-32 Kymco scooters of various sizes this summer.

I like City Grips but they have never been available in the correct sizes for both the front and rear of my scooters.

Keep looking!  Six months ago we couldn't get the sizes here either, but looking again today they are now available!  Yay!

If you're real lucky - you might find the "City Grip 2" in your size. Supposed to be even better in the wet!

And, I'm feeling a little peculiar.

I just checked.  They now show a front tire that will fit my Like 150i.  Of course it will probably take 10,000 miles for the Pirelli on there now to wear out.
