I currently have shinkos on my '79 FLH, they're CRAP. I have run Dunlops on my machines for years and have been very happy,
That FLH is due for replacement rubber in spring so i shall follow this thread to see if someone has a strong enough argument to try another brand.

I've owned Harleys since the '70s and still use Avons.
