Shinko SR777. They are www. I have the same size tires on my 09 ultra. I've used these tires for years. Almost the same tread pattern as the dunlops but way cheaper. I get my rear for $122 and the fronts are $100. My rears usually last around 13000 miles and a little more on the front.

I posted a similar question since I wanted better than a Shinko this time around. I have runs MANY Shinko's in the past and have no issues with them, but I just wanted something better this time. The responses I got said go with a WWW 140/80-17. Dunlop makes them fairly cheap, and its an exact tread match to my back tire. I have not yet tried the 140 vs the 130 since my tires are still in pretty good shape, but the time is coming soon, and unless some one can tell me they have had issues fitting a 140, I am trying the Dunlop 140/80-17 Wide White Wall on my Road King.

You can also look at the Continental Milestone. I posted a question about these tires just the other day.

As I mentioned, I have not used the 140......yet.
But here's a post where C.H.L. posted up pictures of HIS bike with a 140 WWW front tire installed. He claims its a clean fit with no rubbing, and frankly he has a gorgeous bike!

As far as where to buy them, I use www.bikebamdit.com but any mail order will be substantially less than a dealer. But even at mail order prices, the 140 Dunlop will be a lot more than a 130 Shinko.
