My tire has a hole in it. Name your top 3 for replacements

[Guest]

Or even your top like for a tire.

I have cracking in my sidewall and sure enough the tire I got last year was mae in 33 09. Alas and alack.

Get one without a hole in it.

It's gotta have a hole in it. The wheel goes in the hole!

Hahahaha

Jeep, I just stuck a pair of Pirelli Sport Demons on mine the other week and so far I'm lovin' 'em.

My first real good ride through the twisties is planned for this coming Thursday, but they already feel a hell of a lot better than the dual sports I had on there.

The Katana guys and GS500 guys here love them and I can see why...

+1 on sport demons, they increase bike confidence a ton. Stability and grip are excellent.

Still happy with Shinko 230 Tourmasters on mine.

[OldVet66]

I have limited experience with the tires, but out of three brands I have used on my current bike, Metzler, Avon Roadrider AM26 and Shinko 230 TourMasters, I like the Shinko 230's the best.

Avon Roadrider is the only tire I've had recent experience with. Two bikes,
I have them on both.
I may just like them because they're leaps and bounds better than the stuff I had in the '70's.

Both my bikes have Avon Roadriders. Second set and love them. Good in the rain too.

Now Trevor have you dealt with the Canadian MC tire website before?
Its damned tempting not to haul the gas pig truck out for a trip to the tire store.
10 bucks just for going into town imagine that.

I wondered the same thing http://www.thegsresources.com/_forum...d.php?t=206984 those that have used them seem to like them.In the end I got tires from my local dealer.

Yes, that's how I got them. I ordered two for the 1100 and a rear for the 750. Even give you another $15 off for ordering more than two. It was very easy. I had them to Victoria in one week. Free shipping over $100. I paid $360 for three tires.

metzler lasertecs??

[OldVet66]

Of the three brands I have had, I liked the Metzler Lasertecs the least. The first pair cracked on the sidewalls, the replacements cracked also. They did not handle as well as the other two brands. Avon AM26, the sidewalls on the rear tire cracked, they replaced both tires, I wore the rear tire out, but went With Shinkos next because the front tire was cupping. They handled well. Shinko 230 Tourmaster, the back tire might be worn out before winter. No cracking or odd wear, half the price of the Avons, will probably wear two back tires to one front, still cheaper than one set of the Avon tires. They are the most confidence inspiring tires I have ever had. All three sets were on the same wheels balanced with Dynabeads.
