Hello from Orem UT

Hello. My brother and I just picked up two ZS sierra 200's. So far so good. The bikes are great except for the tires. They came with street tires, and I figured we could switch them for more aggressive tread tires fairly easily. That does not seem to be the case. Any info on where to get front and rear off road tires would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for all the helpful info thus far.

Your not alone. Spud has posted a thread with some more aggressive street tires, but the only known rear dual sport tire is only available from zongshen america and they are backordered.

The front I think you can get.

Welcome to the forums! It is good to have two new Zong owners join us.

You are correct, the Zongshen Sierra 200GY-2 is a great little bike; however, getting a dual sport tire for the 130/90-15 rear wheel is the bike’s Achilles heel. All Zong owners are patiently awaiting the arrival of the backordered Kingstone dual sport tires. Until they arrive, your other options for a rear tire are detailed in the thread below.

Fortunately, you have a greater choice for your front tire; the options are detailed in the following thread.

If you get a chance, please post some photos of your new Zongs; we love photos! If you don’t mind telling, where did you buy your new motorcycles?
