I know a local Indy guy who will install new tires for $25 per wheel&nbsp\\;front or rear, he'll take it off or you can, either way. I've yet to need a change but will do it myself when the time comes. I tend to believe others won't be as respectful to my bike as I will.

 

Well let me get some opinions as to if you think it is time to change the rear. Iv'e been told by some to change and other sto give it another 1-2k.

&nbsp\\;

 

Myownself, it would have to go.

Up to you. Has some tread left.

Put this one on mine a couple months ago.

Mud,
Hey thanks for your input.
BTW what tire is that? The SE 180.
Also to throw the question out there regarding the front tire, are most guys out there changing the front to every 2 rears.
&nbsp\\;

 

You still have some miles left on it but it won't handle well in rainy weather.

 

&nbsp\\;
Yea I have found that out about the rainy weather already. We get afternoon thundershowers here just about everyday, and I get stuck in one about 2x a week and it sucks .LOL

 

for no more miles you can get outta the soft compound 160 I run to&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\; the wear bars at least.I average right around 6k miles outta of rear.Wish they would come up with a hard compound 160 series grrrr

 

Chris,
Screaming Eagle 170/60.

This is the tire that is stock on the Screaming Eagle Dyna FXDSE CVO machine,
and the Screaming Eagle Road King FLHRSE.

Part # 41998-07

As to the front, yes they last longer.
I change it when I do the rear though.

Chris: before my wreck in June I'd have said wait till you see the wear bars.&nbsp\\; Now I'd say change it.

 

And it's not hard to DIY, and you don't need to buy an expensive jack. http://www.nightrider.com/biketech/bikelift.htm
