I'll do that tomorrow afternoon if that's OK with you, Rich?

 

I am in no rush Rene, thanks

 

I can measure tonight. I just went outside with a tape measure only to realize that I rode one of my other bikes today.

 

I'm curious to know how it compares to the Metzler 880 and Dunlop SE GT502. The Metz cornered better but the SE hooks much better straight line for me. Any feedback appreciated.

 

I posted some pics and measurements in the tire section. It only measures 5-5/8 wide. A stock Dunlop measures 6" and the k591 measured 6.25". An Avon measures 6.3". It is narrow, but I like it a lot so far.

 

Narrow tires roll easier--smaller contact patch--less rolling resistance.

Rene, you got very good service from the Dunlop, nearly 12,000 miles! My stock Dunlop rear needed replacing by 8,000 miles. Now, front and rear are ME880's. Very pleased w/ wet and dry performance.

 

I just put a set of Commander II's on my SB. I only have a couple hundred miles on them so I can't comment about the longevity. They do seem to grip nice though.

 

Thanks for chiming in, John.

141 mm = 5-9/16" on mine.....Less pressure in mine I guess?

I'm 7 meters = 7 ft above see level, LOL!

 

Damn that is one skinny tire Rene...

 

Oooops....measurement adjusted
