Recently i ordered a Shinko 705 from Ebay they sent me a Full bore.
I figured it looks like the 705 but as some pointed out the tread is deeper and a little wider.
So to the point being i have been using 705's for years the Full bore actually out lasted the Shinko by about 2000 miles.
I'm at 7k and ready for a new rear maybe could pull 8k.
The Shinko at the most i got was 5k pushing it another 500 miles was it.
I don't feel much of a difference in the two in fact the FB doesn't get funky on road paint, it seems to do well in heavy rain like the 705 and wears even.
Think i will try another on the rear, the front gets the 705 19-19x21.
Anyone experience this as well?

I'm running a full bore rear on a 15 Tiger 800 XCX but only have about 3500 miles on it -- like it so far and looks to have another 3 -4k left. I have ordered a FB front for my Tenere' to try.
