I have a 2001 Low rider. Its time to replace the back tire.


Anyone have any recommendations?

 

Ive ran michelin scorchers, dunlop and running michelin commander ll now hoping to get more than 7500 miles out it. Only have about 2k on it now and still looks new.

 

i am running the shinko 777 on my 2010 super and they stick to the pavement and from what i have read on them they go little further then the stock and are the best price tire around i got my rear 160/70-17 for around 108 shipped to my door and at that price i will use them again

 

Best tires for my riding have been the Pirelli Night Dragon's; improved handling in wet conditions, superior in the curves, and my threshold braking distances are shortened. Depending on your riding style the trade off is they may wear a bit faster but for the improvements they offer I'll gladly change them out more frequently...

 

Man those are expensive

 

What kind of mileage are you getting?

 

I'm getting my Pirelli Night Dragon's at Jake Wilson Best prices, the tires ship for free same day, and right now Pirelli has a $40 rebate if you buy a set...

 

What surfaces do you ride on?
Are they wet very often?
How many highway miles to you put on?
What is your ridding style?

 

Can't go wrong with a set of Metzeler 880's.

 

Im going to have to check that out. thanks..
