I've got an 1800 C and its time to commit.

Hoping not to have any install or handling problems. bow

Thanks Doc, for looking at these posts. This is the tire I'm thinking of using on my 1800 C

I'm not an expert, but If it were me buying a tire for my bike, I'd stay away from Falken. That's the only brand that I have read multiple negative reviews for... 2cents

The size will work, I don't have any experience with the Falken.
I can vouch for General Grabbers and Michelin Hydroedge on a VTX. thumbup

Well don't know where my head has been but I put a set of falken zeis tires on my challenger last winter.10000 miles and a few burnouts later I am happy to report they seem to be very good tires. thumbup thumbup
