To All

I am new to this forum but not new to the darkside.

Short info - from Ontario Canada , current ride is 2002 VTX1800R , 58 years old , riding since I was 10.

Quick question - Is there a survey available on tire preferences? I was running a Goodyear Triple Tread and would like to see what others
are running. Because they last so long trial and error would be time consuming.
I have looked through the site but didn't find a survey.

I do a lot of long distance touring two up,no trailor,and am not afraid to ground the floor boards.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Doug

That tire and the Hydroedge are the two most popular. You made a good choice.

Congrats and welcome! You will love the darkside. Can't beat the long distant riding, wet weather safety of the soft rubber, floor dragging ability (hehehehe), or how hard you can ride it. It will most everything a motorcycle tire will do but better!

+2 The Goodyear is an excellent choice

I just put on a General Altimax HP 205/60-16.I do like the look of the good year tt ,but it was a money thing when I purchased my new back tire.
