Cant find a place to buy a new back tire.

[SemperRocket]

Hello all,
Unfortunately my dealer says they're unavailable. I've had no luck finding a back tire for sale online in the US. Anyone have any solutions? Thank you in advance.

The Avon factory in France was closed down to move it to the UK and it'll be some time yet before it's producing tires again. There are a couple of options including the Metzler 888 and my personal favorite the Bridgestone Exedra Max in 240/55R16 for only $255.

So one might wonder what tyres are currently being fitted to the Rocket by the factory.....

Didn't Avon produce that tire especially for Triumph? They probably got all they needed up front and secondary sales are suffering.
