classic

Guys don't try the classic radial, the bead breaks before the tire will seat, I blew one at 85 lbs, and another biker trying to mount one on a magna rear wheel said his blew at 85 lbs. That make the third one that the bead broke.

To be honest - I don't believe I'll try any other tire since I put the Kumho on that I got from gunboat. I'm totally happy with it.

The CHENG SHIN MAXXIS C6011 CLASSIC is the tire that pops up when doing a search. There could be other brands using the term 'classic', but this is the one most likely.

I really don't know the tire only had classic written on it, the local dealer I bought from said he thought it was built by cooper tire for another company, built to the other companies specs. Had a great looking tread but like I said I personelly know of three that the bead broke before the tire would seat.

But it was not a MAXXIS MC tire, it was a ct radial.

If says classic on the side I would avoid it, I just did the post so maybe noone else would try, my dealer ate the cost even after I offered to pay anyway, but most would not because of the application.
