Before going into the different tyres, we can first explore the types of tyres and the different factors that affect tyre performance. These factors are:
Tyre pressure: If a bike does not have proper tyre pressure, in that case, no bike will perform optimally. Every motorcycle has a tyre pressure that has been set by the manufacturer. If these tyre pressures are not maintained, the rider will not be satisfied.
Tyre types: There are multiple types of tyres, such as soft compound, hard compound, moderate type tyres. These tyres will also affect the experience of the rider.

We have chosen 3 tires for the Yamaha R15 V3. They are:
Pirelli Angel City: This is a premium segment of tyre that is supported by most street and sport touring bikes under 300CC. This bike is made using a new form of compound that uses carbon black and a percentage of silica. This tyre is quite popular and has quite a reputation, however, not everyone suggests this tyre, as the compound is quite sticky and has more contact with the ground. This results in a bit of less fuel efficiency than the other two.
Pirelli Diablo Rosso III: Although the new Pirelli Diablo Rosso IV has already made it to the market, we suggest the Diablo Rosso IV. The Diablo Rosso III has a better grip than the Angel City. This also affects the fuel efficiency of the bike. But still, the curve of the Diablo Rosso III allows it to have much less contact than the Angel City but still good grip due to the silica based compound.
MRF Masseter: The MRF Masseter which is a soft compound tyre with LAPS (Lean Angle Performance System), which allows the bike to lean the bike with a lot of confidence. The braking stability of the tyre is very good for the bike. It also has better wet grip than stock tyres.
