I love my night dragons. Best mix of wear and traction I’ve seen especially with the night dragon GT rear tire. Running them on my dyna.

The night dragons aren’t very popular with the touring bikes, just get looked over i think for probably longer wearing tires like the AE’s and Michelin’s.


As far as metzlers go... I personally feel they are over priced especially considering their spotty past with coming apart. But from what I see those problems have been taken care of a few years ago with the past few runs of the 888’s.

I am considering Bridgestone Battlecruise H50 for my '18 SGS. Anyone tried these?

After doing some research and based on availability I've decided to go with Dunlops American Elite.
