    Good tire review is so rare in CZcams people either do sponsorship or praise what they own without going into the detail. Great review as always.

    Many dealer have michellin road 5s or pirelli diablo rosso IIIs in stock, but there's a high chances that those are old tyres [ It is recommended to install tyres within 1.5 yrs from DOT ]. I got protorque extreme on mine and ngl these surely feel better than metzellers sportec m5 (corners especially). Good to see that Indian manafacturers are picking up the pace.

    These tyres comes as a stock in gen 3 duke, excellent cornering grip but the material is too soft in gravels and stones very unstable after 6k kilometres its skids in wet roads not that good as per the price, when i do hard engine breaking it slides but best cornering tyre and the material is soft so after 6-8k kilometres its grip is gone and sliding, small stones gets stucks inside rubber too soft

    Are the tyres round profile or v profile.
    Does it feel like it rolls into corners quickly or slow.
    In corners does it deflect and jump on small road bumps .
    And in braking does the front start to give up .
    How is the feel while cornering is it numb like the TVS or rigid like the Apollo.
    Any air pressure recommendations. 28 psi + or - cold air temperature.

      @@TheINDIAN Hey dude... Great to see you on my channel. I enjoy your videos.
      Tyres are rounded like Diablo Rossos.
      Not as quick dipping into corners as the Protorq Extremes.
      Actually in corners, it soaks any undulations. Doesn't jump.
      During hard braking, the front stays stable. Doesn't give up. Even during trail braking, it has been behaving well. Nothing unusual.
      I haven't really cornered a lot... I need to do a ghat section to give more inputs on this. However, it is definitely not rigid like Apollo Alpha H1s.
      Haven't experimented with different tyre pressure yet.
