Best tires by far!!!!
#121
I also put a set of E3's on an 07 Road Glide, along with a touring stabilizer link. The end result was outstanding. It feels like a different bike in corners, so much so that i had to move my floorboard mounts up to the higher mounting position. Same thing happened to my 05 Dyna when i replaced the stock Dunlops with Conti-Tours. I ain't much for Dunlops.
I want the E3's for my 07 RG
Thanks

Just had E3's put on my 2001 Ultra after reading lots of positive reviews - all I can say is wow, what a difference! Cornering, ride comfort, and stability on varied pavement all noticeably improved! Great price from D. Kirk ($211 for both, shipped) too. Thanks for all the posts on these tires!
What size tire did you buy? I have an 01 FLHTCI and am concerned about fit.
Thanks.

For any questioning which E3 is closest to use on the rear. From the research and reading I've done, the MU90H-16 is the closest to stock rear size. The D.K. part # is 542893 and the manufacturer # is 407995. Hope this helps.
...and thanks to those that did the actual work and posted it for me to find.

After reading through the first 5 pages of this post, nowhere did I see anybody ask the question, so I just pose it to you now. How do the E3's compare to the Metzlers? I've always liked Metzlers myself...much better ride characteristics than the stock Dunlops. Anybody ridden on both tires who can offer a comparision?

For any of you doubting the performance prowess of the E3, I just returned from a 3K-mile trip in the Smokies with lots of aggressive riding in the twisties, wet and dry, in a wide variety of conditions. I can say that these tires are very confidence-inspiring, and I will attest that their reputation for durability doesn't have a performance downside. Quite the contrary. I'm very impressed, and getting double the tire mileage over a D402 is a nice plus. YMMV on the mileage, of course, but I'm very impressed with all aspects of this tire.
