Looking to change my dunlops on my sportster find them a bit hard although the last pretty well.was talking to a guy at local bike shop and he says Metzelers are the most popular followed by Pirelli then Avon looking for feedback to get an idea what would be the best replacement cheers
Hey Ireland,
Just put Avon venoms on my Nightster and they are very good. Note the bike shop tried selling me metzelers as clearly they have a bigger margin in them. venoms are softer but get better write ups than metzelers. End of the day it's $ vs mileage.
Avon tyres work out about $508 Pirelli dragons $438 and Mezetler marathons about $464 fitted have about 1500 Kim's left on dunlops thanks for the info lads cheers.
That looks like a good price Sportsterdavo what shop was that from
billy at phenoix motorcycles warragul.....
yep l was very happy...
just need my ticket back.......
Cheers
Got a quote from Harley heaven for a pair of Pirelli dragons$376 fitted
Got my Pirelli tyres fitted today $375 front and back including fitting at Peter Stevens Ringwood good professional job by Glenn the tyre fitter will give a detailed account what they handle like in a few weeks.
Ive tried a few different brands, and I've settled for a michelin on the back and a night dragon on the front, Some people dont like mixing tyres but it works for me and I ride every day
Although this post is old I was wondering how they went?
I have a 2014 thats going to need tyres soon and I have had hte sqirms of the white line thing wiht the stock tryes and they are a bit slippy in the asre end in the wet.
Thanks for the feeback people.
Havent got many K's out the orginals as im at 13K and I reckon another 3 or 4 and they will be due.
