āWe have helped to grow and develop the Shinko brand in the U.S. and have a great relationship with the company,ā said Richard Kelsey, director of sales, tire and wheel, Western Power Sports. āMost of their cruiser tires are sold in America, so when we wanted to develop a long haul tire for U.S. terrain and conditions, they were right there with us.
āShinko has owned the performance cruiser segment, and consumers know and trust the SR777 line. The SR999 Long Haul tire is a great alternative for the rider that is looking for higher mileage on cross country rides,ā Kelsey said.
Western Power Sportsā exclusive U.S. distributor status with Shinko will mark its 20th anniversary in 2023. The new Shinko SR999 tires are now available exclusively through WPS.
