09 and newer you can fit a CT on it.

 

Last summer I was pulling into a parking spot. next to me was a guy and his passenger getting on a Boss Hoss to leave. I noticed he had a Motorcycle tire on the rear. I thought they ran CT's on the Boss Hoss, so I ask him about it. He said they switched back to MT's because of handling issues. Like you said, theirs a reason they design tires different for car's and Motorcycles.

 

don't even attempt it. I had a friend with a Bergman Scooter with side car. He took it in for work without the side car attached..with a car tire on it. He damn near killed himself. It started to oscillate at 50 mph and was un-controllable. Please don't do it!!

 

It's Phu%#ing SCOOTER....What about 500 lbs difference...

 

Hatchetman,

The Vredestein Comtrac 175/75-16 fits if you have a 2008 or older, and the Dunlop SP5000 195/60R16 if you have a 2009 or newer. Either way you will not be disappointed.

I have a Dunlop, and my riding buddy has a Vredestein in his 2007 Ultra.

PM me if you want more info than the one in the "Car tire on my Road King" thread, and don't worry about the tire in the front, you can run a radial or a bias, it doesn't make a difference.


Regards,

 

I'm testing this also. Currently running a CT on my "other" bike. Wanted to see if/how this works before putting one on my Ultra. So far so good.

 

while back someone posted a video with a car tire on a bike and a camera mounted underneath pointing at the rear tire somehow while they were driving and cornering. just the way the tire flexed and looked when it was in a corner i didnt even like. may work but that would scare the hell out of me on a wet road while getting into a corner at any speed.

 

If you saw the video why didn't you post the link to the video we all want to see it

 

Been over 10 years since the last post.

Doubt you will get an answer. LOL

 

Yeah… they are all dead from rear tire blowups
