Elusive D407's
It's about time to get new tires for the scoot, and i've have been seaching all over the internet but the only place to get the D407F MH-90 and the D407 200/55-17" is at the damn stealers. Has anyone found them any other place?

200 tire
I ordered the 200 factory size tire for my wife's FXST from J & P
|
having the same problem. everyone keeps trying to sell me the 205's and i understand they don't wear as long as the 407s. This really sucks. Im on my third set in 16000 miles.which is an average of 8000 a tire. By the time the stealer sells and mounts them ya looking at 325.00 Just for the back tire. If you find a place cheaper let me know.

A good indy shop can get you the D407's but then; why?.. I got a whopping 3500 miles out of my back tire so I went with the Dunlop Elite 3's and I really like them.. Better grip and ride and the price was right.. My back is a 240/40/18 and my local indy got it from Drag and sold it to me for $170, installed for $230 with everything ... There are places online that had that same tire for $155 but then add in shipping plus it's kinda a pimpy to show up someplace with your own tire and ask them to mount it..

Hey Rail, which tire do you have on your bike?
|
Tire in my sig pic is the D407 that came on it.. I'm now running the Elite 3 from Dunlop.. Had it out in a downpour last week and it work real good.. Great traction on dry pavement and the tread has a nice profile to it..

my dealer has the tire installed for $200.

i had the elite 1 on my gold wing in 1983 and loved them. great mileage. i think metzler is best for traction but the new dunlop for 2009 has hard center and soft sidewalls.
