    Need New Tires

    Before heading home from weekend at coast, noticed rear tire was down to belts. I stay on tripometer and reset at each fill-up, so I lost track of milage. I had 8100 original miles. I guess 8000 on the rear is all you can expect from what I've read. Anyway, limped home at 60 mph the whole...

Frankly, I'm worried about a flat on the way to Smashville. I'm probably not coming directly to Smashville, I'm going...
  20. Tires

    I feel the Metzeler’s fitted to my R3 as STD are a harder touring compound rather than the performance tire I would rather have on my bike. Can anyone recommend tires with better grip & braking characteristics for the R3? -->240/50 R16 rear; 150/80 R17 front
