Has anyone installed H' rated front tire.Looking to replace to front tire and H rated tire Metzeler ME880 150 80H17 is considerably cheaper than 'V' rated tires. what is drawback of installing lower rated tire on 05 classic.
 
Do you ride faster than 132 mph? If not, then H rating is just fine. I've been running H rated Dunlop D404s and a Shinko for several years now. Both do much better than the Metzler in the wet.
 
No don't push it past 110 and wet weather performance is very important for me cause ride thought year .what Shinko tires are you running tdagger.
