Put Mets 880's on my 1400 Suzuki Davidson and loved em! got 5k out of the last 3 sets (rear get 5 k front get 9 k but the front is in the air most of the time)still use em. wouldnt trade more mileage for the grip i get with them.

 

Looks like a nice tire, but I don't see a 160/18 option.

Thanks for the info..
Sounds like the 150 is a harder compound?
I hate to loose the extra load capacity with the 160..

 

I admit I'm terrible. The throttle is "ON" or "OFF" with me... LOL!

 

I have been running Metzs for a long time, and I'm aware of their higher pressures..
I have it at 48 psi...
Good point though!!

Nuttin'.&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\; On the '06's and up, a 160 will typically fit fine. I have read bout a few folks here having trouble, but my buddy and I installed 160's on my roadie and his '06 street with no problems. That was on a 4.25 rim too!

7K on the avon huh???&nbsp\\; Are you tough on them??&nbsp\\; I don't do burnouts, but I'm constantly in the throttle off the line...
&nbsp\\;

 

Well, after searching the net, I don't see any options other than sport bike tires.&nbsp\\; Looks like I have to stick to the Metz or go with a 150.&nbsp\\;

 

I just changed out my Metz 160/80/16 on the rear of my 06 Streetglide. I was amazed that I got 9400 miles out of it and probably would have gotten over 10k if it wasn't for the few smoky burn outs that it endured. Best I ever got from the Dunlops was 7100.

 

Wow, some of you guys ride pretty hard!&nbsp\\; I am happy with my stock Dunlops, but I am a putter, not very aggressive at all.
