Touring Tires
So I've got a 2015 road king. I bought this bike brand new and have put 50k miles on this bike already. What is everyone running for tires? I understand that I'm still gonna be putting on a few tires every year, but is there anything out there that might make it a few extra thousand miles? I've be reading and I like the sounds of Metezler M888. TIA!

Metzler ME 888's...
Over the last 2+ years I have been averaging 14,000+ miles on the rear and 18,000+ miles on the front with my Metzler ME 888's. The ride and handling are excellent. My new bike came with the Dunlop Elite's so it will be interesting to see how they hold up. If I don't do as well I'll just go back to the Metzler's.

I used to run the Michelin's and had good luck with them. I also got 16 k two up on my last stock Dunlops on my 15 Road King. The advantage to the Dunlops is all HD Dealers have them in stock and if you ever need one replaced on a trip they have them. I do not like to mix tire brands and the Michelins are much harder to come by.
