Mixing tyres
Has anyone tried Metzeler me888 front tyre with Avon cobra chrome rear on a touring model?
I was thinking about it, and have read that the combo is a good one, but I cant find a 1st hand opinion

Dunlops
I have an AE on front and standard Harley Dunlop on rear, RGS
no issues. I ran mettzlers on my dyna WG and loved them. RK I had paired Dunlops.
I can say for me the AE is noisy if thats the right word. Took me a minute to realize nothing is wrong, tire just gives more feedback than I expected. The newer Dunlops, IMO wear so much more. I get a lot of mileage. Dont track to the T but I am 45k plus and only on 2nd set of tires changed first set as I was riding with the boys during bike week. Only time we ride stupid. Otherwise we ride long trips. Tires look great now coming off an approximate 4k mile mountain ride.
