Tyres

[Darcey]

I don't like the grip quality of the Dunlop elites on the front any suggestions for a good replacement mileage isn't an issue for me just want a better gripping tyre

Metz's - 100%

[Darcey]

Thanks mate

[Kris Durrant]

The Metzs grip like shit on a blanket, and wear real quick. More durable, less sticky, but with almost as good feel are the Avon Cobras- I would recommend those. Metzs are too soft for our heavy bikes IMHO. I had chucks the size of dollar coins coming off my rear on the edges and going deep into the tyre- not good.

[Alan Teese]

Try staying on the road bro ( lmfao ).

[Kris Durrant]

Hey Al
Yeah man the sides of my Metzs were screwed, middle was OK. Avons are all good after about 2k on them now.

Bummer about the Reds mate.

[Alan Teese]

I'm still crying m8.

Hey Darcey,

Looking at tyre options for my Harley and noticed the following.

Good luck

Pirelli Night Dragons are the go

[Wayne Knowles]

I've still got a few thousand K's left on the stock Dunlops and I'm getting rid of the things, they are absolute rubbish in anything more than a light dew, I'm getting Avons put on today.

[Kris Durrant]

Yep the dunlops are too hard, lack feel and worst of all- are completely the wrong profile.

You wont believe the difference going to decent tyres Wayne, and the Avons are great.
