I don't know if anyone else is experiancing the luck as I'm having, but since I put the Douglas 205x70x15 on the rear and a new Metzler M880 on the front (7500 miles ago) I have had no front end wobble or uneven wear on the front tire. The Douglas is showing very little wear and the Metz is wearing much better than normal. I love the c/t!

I just put a Bridgestone Spitfire S11 on the front of the VLX, replacing the DungFlop D404, and am very happy with the handling. Now, I know that it is a brand new tire and will feel better than whatever it replaced but, the DungFlop had developed a severe low speed wobble that, if I took my hands off the handlebars below 30, the bars moved three to four inches back and forth. :cyclops: :cyclops: The DungFlop was worn smooth and had about 15,000 miles on it, so good long life but p.o.s. at the end. Next I may try a rear m/t on the front to see if I can get better life and handling out of it.

Sh!t, next I may be putting a car tire on...oh, never mind!! Twisted Evil Twisted Evil Laughing Laughing
