I have a few questions. My current tire setup is Metzeler 880 fronts and rears. Rear is a 200/50/17 front is a 90/90/21. Bike is an 07 FXDB. I would really like to install a 120/70/21 front for a better contact patch and look.

I have read about guys running bias front with radial rears with no issues. As far as I can tell the Avon Cobra 120/70/21 front is a bias only tire. Anyone know if Avon makes this size in a radial?

Also, anyone running a Avon front bias with a Metz 880 radial rear?

Not looking to start a pissing match here. I know the MoCo does this. I would like to hear first hand specific Avon Cobra front and Metzeler 880 rear experience.

Thanks in advance for your time.

 

I run Avons front and rear so I can't help with your question. However, I have the same bike and have a 110 on the front. It's a real tight fit, so before you buy anything you might want to get the measurement of the width of the 120 and see if it will work at all.

 

Thanks for the heads up.
