The 18/15 sizes are common on small to medium displacement cruisers - the popular and long lived Honda Rebel uses them, for one - so street tires for the Sierra are easy. But yeah, there's not great selection in 18/15 knobbies and d/s tires.

so there are only a hand full of sierra 200's on the forum huh?

Yes I meant odd. That size tire is tough to find in knobbies or dual sport. Not much selection like the 21/18 sized tires.

Have to agree with Kato...the tire combo on the Sierra is awful hard to match up. I have found that the best option is to stick with the OEM fitment Cheng Shen Barracuda 6.

The street tires I got with mine are pretty solid, no doubt.

The dealer I got mine from in Miami does stock knobbies as well though, it was my choice which tire I got at purchase.

so Bex, what is the highest speed you've got out of your Sierra? Any sprocket change?

bex · 06-27-2008, 01:59 PM

Strictly stock on my Zong at the moment. Have achieved 65mph but wasnt for very long, just to pass a car on the highway. I am still breaking in the motor, so I have never tried WOT yet.

My friend has a Sierra 200 as well, and he has gotten the bike to peg at the end of the speedo, so I think they can go pretty fast, just takes time to build up the speed.

nice! Well i just wanted to get the bike for communitng from home to work for the summer... I'm usually stuck in traffic... so 60 and under most of the time but sometimes 65 so what kind of sprocket came on the bike?

bex · 06-27-2008, 08:09 PM

Honestly...I cant tell you the sprocket setup...just dont know. When my friend comes back in from Florida, I'll ask him, he had his totally disassembled for shipping.
