Excellent tire for the price!
I always hear bad things about Shinko tires but they don't give me any issue. I've never had them come loose on me in a turn and they are just perfect.

Best Tires For The Money...
Great tires for the money. It is low in price and performs excellent. I commute a lot with some sprints here and there (even twisties), and these tires hold up really well.
They are durable and lasts long as well. I have already gone through two sets (front and rear Raven 009 tires: about 7k miles each set) - that is good because I ride a motorcycle that has a lot of torque and is known to eat up tires really quick.
Now,all of my riding buddies are using Shinko Raven 009's as well.
Only downfall is that it takes a LONG time to warm up because of the harder compound. Good for people like me who commute on highways 90% of the time, but BAD for people who want to take it out and hit the twisites or tracks right away.

So far good .. but ...
I moved from Michelin Pilot Roads to these tires based on economics and good reviews. I can't speak about longevity - I've had them on for 1500 km.
They seem good but the front centre-line void causes the tire to grab the gratings when driving on steel grated bridges. Very very worrisome. In fact I'll drive extra miles to avoid it.
