I say b s on this one i have been riding harleys for over 35 years and never had a rear tire last 15,ooo miles that was safe to ride!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Geezer tires? whats next a compound for wheel chairs Invalid tires? How about Young Buck tires a new sport tire compound.Better yet a tire with 2 compounds a long wearing center rib with soft sides for the sport rider,call it a Geezer Buck tire! Maybe that is the way to please all riders.

 

I use run flats dunlop on the front of my lowrider they are a little harder you can shoot them bullets will it not go in to them.

 

sounds like an alignment issue and abuse.By abuse I don't mean smoking the tire every light just riding harder than most riders do.I could get 8-10k out of the rear when I used Dunlaps.Went to Metzlers a couple of years ago and won't ever use anything else.Still about the same mileage but a much more controlled ride.Got a 200 Avon on the Sportster I just built as part of a pkg deal on the wheel.It grips pretty good but I don't think it's gonna last long though,it's real soft.G.

 

Yeah, I really only got 5k on my rear but I thought it would be really impressive to just lie and say I got 15k. Good grief. Do your homework and read some threads before calling people out and you'll see others with similar mileage.

 

My Train runs the 200 Dunlop on the rear, and I replaced the original at just over 16K...I first threw my leg over a bike in 1967 and I don't ride on unsafe tires...I've got almost 6K on the current one, and it looks great...

 

HEY GUYS!!!! ......Before we get a war started here,I'm talking about a DUNLOP 200/55/R17tire that HD puts on the 07 softail custom / standard/nitetrain.That's all,just the 200/55/R17,nothing more,I really don't care if you get a million miles on your flh's tires or 2 billion on your dyna-low.Hey,Ok,I'm glad you do ,fine.
I JUST WANT DUNLOP TO FIX THIS POS 200/55/R frickin' 17 TIRE !!!!!!!!
I been using Dunlops for years and like them.Just this one SUCKS!!!!!!!
GOT IT!!!!!!!AGGGGHHHHHH

 

We understand but do you get it

 

I just saw this with my buddies '08 Heritage Classic a week or two ago with his stock tire. He only got 4500 out of his rear tire, but I don't know what size it was. The front still looks new.

 

Was it a Sportmax touring d205?
