Has anyone found a better tyre for Fat Bob's than the Metzler ME 880's? I own a 2011 model.
I replaced my Dunlops with Avon Venoms. I also went up a size in width too.
No complaints so far.

thanks Rob...I've been running the Metzlers for a few years now, & was just wondering if there was something new or better out there.No complaints with the Metzlers......great tyres......just fishin' to see if there's anything new.....
yep, I too have always run night dragons, stick like shit to a blanket, only get 8000k's out of a rear though, but full confidence scraping the pegs at higher speeds I have on the rear of my softail at present a 200mm Michelin commander 2, also happy with the grip of this tyre at this point, all the reviews ive read claim twice the tyre life of other leading brands, done 4000ks so far with no significant sign of wear so this appears to be true, the N.D would be half worn at this point hope this helps cheers mate
yes am usin nite dragons great grip but will & will dissapear if agressive with launching at lights ,or just doin burnouts leaving from stationry posi but a verey good tyre at holding line in corners high lean angle run 40 psi rear 38 psi front
Night Dragons on mine. Maybe not the best wearing but good grip when warm. 38psi front and rear.
michelin commander !! 36 front an rear
