Uggg, went to leave work today and the back tire on the bike was flat. I Have a Dunlop K591 160/70 B17 on the FXDC. Whats good that won't break the bank.

 

Metzeler ME880 from motorcycle-superstore.com

 

Avon Storm II

 

thanks I will check it out

 

I run those now, I really like them. I have 5k on them and I could possibly get another 5 out of the rear, that's my goal anyways.

 

Switched from Dunlop to Metzelers. Huge difference. They handle Great....

 

I keep hearing real good things bout the Meta tires. Im gonna go with a 170 Metz in the rear opposed to the Dulop 160 I have now,

 

Where were you guys when I suggested A met to another guy a couple of months ago. I've ran them for years with great luck, and am about to put the first one on this bike.

 

My stock dunlop got a hole & I put a Metzeler 880 on it two weeks ago. Couldn't be happier!

And get it from www.americanmototire.com

cheaper than motorcycle-superstore, j&p, or dennis kirk & it was at my house in 4 days.

 

I've owned 4 sets of Metzeler 880's on 3 different bikes. Mileage was same as stock and every set "cupped" badl. Not saying they didn't handle well just that I didn't find them an improvement over stock. I've also seen plenty of threads about the cupping. Btw, I tried every tire pressure imaginable with no effect on the cupping.
