Thanks for the confirmation as well. I got the two sizes I mentioned originally from Dennis Kirk after checking with Dunlop today. I got both for a couple pennies under $214 shipped (front $92, rear $112, free shipping).
Figured with my Ultra, with the passenger and packing weight when we travel, I'd better stay as close to original size as possible. Nice thing is rear gives me more weight rating, and the tires overall should blow away the mileage ability of the stock Dunlops.
LP: thanks for the pics.

LP was actually the one I was referring to that had put this tire on his bike. Thanks again LP!

The 160 actually has a higher load rating than the MU90 (992 @ 40psi for the 160 and 930 @ 40 psi for the MU90). You can't go wrong with either. The 160 is more expensive though.

I'll make a note on the 160 for a future purchase. Thanks for all the help.

No matter what size you guys pick, you're going to love the way your bike handles with these tires. They are simply awesome. I can't say enough about them.
Good luck.

I'm on my second set of E-3's, and I really like em. Great prices, and with the free shipping it's really hard to beat... Last purchase was with Dennis Kirk, previous one with RonAyers.com. Good Luck

Looking to get a set of the E3 Dunlops for my '08 Ultra (stock 9-spoke wheels). Went through a number of previous posts trying to figure out the correct tires to get, and can't find an exact answer. This is what I figured out:
- Front: MT90B16 72H
- Rear: MU90B16 78H
