Which tyres for T100

[Jimnibob]

Hi,

I am looking to add some beefier tyres to my 2003 T100. I am considering something along the lines of these;

- Dunlop F20 - 110/90-18 TL 61V M/C Front wheel WLT

- Metzeler Tourance - 140/80 R17 TL 69H Rear wheel

- Pirelli MT60 RS Corsa - 160/60 R17 TL 69V Rear wheel

Does anyone have any advice or alternative considerations?

Cheers

I changed from stock Metzeler's to Michelin Pilot Activ's in the stock sizes, big difference. Forget the 160/60 on a stock rim, too big.

I'm running Pirelli Sport Demon in the following sizes:

F 100/90-19
R 140/80-17 vs stock size of 130/80-17

I got shinko 705
110 80 19 front
150 70 17 rear.

Great price at revzilla too

I plan In switching to Avon Storm 3D XM, like I run on my Yam Warrior. English tyres for an English (owned) motorcycle company, I say...

One of my greatest disappointments with my '17 T120 are the Pirelli Phantoms. I live on an island in SF Bay with steel deck bridges and the Pirellis squirm very badly.

I saw an article that Avon Cobras were selected for the new Bobber

Avon Roadriders in the stock sizes for me too on both the Bonnie and Thruxton - Trouble free miles.
