I don't think you will be hearing any more from those morons in this thread. Pretty sure they got their tiny pee pees smacked by the moderators for violating forum rules.

Default diggin up bones...

I know this thread is old, and has only a few recent posts, but I just traided my dark side GL1800 for a 15 ultral limited. I gurantee you, as soon as that rea tire is worn out, it's getting a Michelin Alpine. I just gotta figure out a good size, and a place to mount it.

By the way, I wore a set of pegs out on that GL1800 with the Alpine on the back. NEVER had a problem in the corners.

Ride Safe

I'm thinking of going to the dark side on my Dyna out here in Kansas there are no corners at all flat straight roads might be a slight bend or two but nothing you would consider a corner if you can go around it at over 120 miles an hour on a Harley lol but most riding out here is highway I'm looking at the Metz 880 tire but thinking about the dark side because not having corners at all!

Thank you, I was just getting ready to tell Turbo good luck finding a tire that would work. I had not been able to find one. Thanks to you now I know of at least one.
