I can't talk about miles, but I really love the Shinko 777s I just got from motorcycle-superstore. Came to 150 for front and rear in the right sizes, much better than my last set of Dunlop 404s.

Just got a Metzler 880 rear 150/80 from the MC Super Store for $138 delivered. Another $20 have it mounted and I'm good for another season or two.

GP, Where did you get it mounted for $20? I need to get a rear tire and Team-motorsports will do it for $30+ if you buy it from somewhere else. Free this month if you buy from them. But their price is higher for the tire.

Janssen Motorsports on Hwy KK east of Appleton just short of Hwy 55. That's what they charged me last time. I'll find out next week...again.

Silver_Fox or Darn, anywhere I can get Dynabeads locally? Wait, do they work in tires with tubes? If not, never mind.

I'm guessing no on the beads in the tube.

quote from their site "The result for your customer is not only a smoother ride, but a better look - Dyna Beads eliminate the need for spoke or stick-on weights applied to those beautiful alloys. They can be used with tubes or tubeless tires, and work for scooters as well"..http://www.innovativebalancing.com/motorcycle.htm
