its time for a tire, another metz bites tha dust . ok what im looking for is suggestions on tire make and models and sizes that fit the rock 07 classic,,i have the Triumph leather bags and i know the wider tires might rub, also speed ratting , live in southeast texas so its mostly hot weather ridding , but 30 degrees doest slow me down much , i do ride year round , Thanks in advance
 
u should be able to find most of the info under the darkside heading in the forums area
 
Nolton,I have a dunlop on the front of my R3T. rode it to MV and elsewhere. Have 6500 miles on it and 1/32nd tread left. (dunlop 404 150/80/16). Not happy with the low miles!!
 
Just put a new Dunlop 404 180/50-17 on. Will watch the mileage I get out of it.


Riken Raptor, rides well for me at 31 PSI



And yes, I drank the Kool Aid

Thanks for the heads up. Know anything about Shinko?

I love my Shinko Front tyre, handle better, turn faster(change of direction) wear slightly better 2/3 of the price of a metz
