Since i value everyones opinion here in the evo forum, i have a question, On a full size bike, What kinda tires are you running and why? im looking for a set of tires and am up in the air on what to run, I liked my elite3s on the old bike, but am open to suggestions. thanks
I'm a WWW man so I ran 2 Dunlop 90's, 1 MU85 for a little bigger tire and good tires, danced a little on the snakes with some wear, only got about 7000miles - bike is big, I'm big and ride with aggressive riders.
Recently installed a Venom 150 WWW, I wanted a bigger tire is why but the Venom makes you not want another Dunlop, nothing wrong with the Dunlop but the woody factor of the big tire, performance and road feel will overshadow the possibility of the Venoms advertised quick wear.

I run Metzeler Marathons front and rear on Bertha. She seems to like them, and so do I. When these wear out I may try the Avon Venoms, just to see what all the fuss is about!
I have experience with the Avons (I liked them) and Metzler, which I have been sticking with. They are great handling tires, and excellent on wet roads. If I want a high mileage tire, I put them on the car.
i run the dunlops HD. thats what my bike calls for and there made by dunlop for my model so thats good enough for me. besides they dont cost that much.
you have tofigure what you want your tires for,i have run metz and avon both good tires, but for my fattie its got dunlop ,just cause they seem to last longer and handle weather well
