Great question. I am in the process of deciding myself. Hopefully someone will chime in and give an opinion or two.

Love my Boppers, about $35 each and the dealership only charged me $20 to install both (had wheels already removed). Well worth the upgrade.

[Andman007]

with the bopper did you increase any mph at all or no?

[scooter sam]

No increase in speed, but a huge increase in fast cornering confidence. 32 psi in mine.

I am riding on sl26 got them for about 70 dollars shipped, and about 40 dollars on the install. I would imagine that there will not be that much of a difference between the two, just find the better price and go with it.

I thought they used 120/90/10 front and 130/90/10 rear

BTW-I just ordered a pair of Pirelli SL26. Should get them in a week.
