    IRC tires for a 1980 KZ750 hardtail

    hey all, been looking at getting new tires on the cheaper side for my 1980 KZ 750 hardtail, and i was checking out the IRC GS-11.
    Anyone got any opinion on these tires, for my application? From what i read off their site they are rated for small and medium bikes, and don't know if this will be okay on mine (which is striped down a ton from stock obviously)
    Any advice or experience would be greatly appreciated or other good tire suggestions?? my choice would be some avon speedmasters and safety milelage, i just dont have that cash right now

    I don't have any experience with them. So far all I've run on my bikes have been Avon, Dunlop (factory tires) and Metzeler ME880's. check out www.cyclegear.com and look up street tires and sort it by the cheapest. They put stuff on sale all the time and I even picked up a ME880 front tire for $75

          I don't have that model tire, but I do have a pair of IRC GP-1's on my sl350, and I like them. Good quality compared to price.

                  I have the 19" up front and changed the rear 16" to a Conti twin K112. I will change the front too asap. I don't like how the irc handles the corners.
