Michelin Commander II are what a good many around here have gone too. I have a set on my Venture and I can say they will be on the Evo when the time comes.
We just got back from Brason Mo and did alot riding there.
Avons were once my choice of tires but no more.
There is a shop in Pryor not far from Tulsa that I know. Good fella that will help if he can, he just won't be in the shop till Tuesday.
I'll send ya a Pm with info if ya end needing something. Call me if ya want

It does seem that cheap MC tires wear out quick which begs the question: Are they really a deal? My buddy lost his job and put some Kendas on his bike. He rides a ton of miles in a year and the Kenda wore out in a hurry. He wasn't complaining. It got him through a rough patch but, lasted less than half of what he was used to getting on a MC tire.
I do throw my bike around and drag parts all the time. The Stinko is a sticky tire. It feels way better that the 402 Dunlops ever did. The 402s washed out more than once. I have never felt the Stinkos washing out.

Funny how different parts of the country stocks different tires.
Guess supply of what sells the best there
Dunlop Elites have been good to more than a few people I know too. Good luck WP

A friend of mine did and he really likes it.
Just 2 problems.
1) It's really hard to fit the tire to the rim
2) Tires that fit are hard to find.
No other problems to date.
