Hummingbird Posted February 3, 2011 Share #5 Posted February 3, 2011 haven't replaced the FRONT tire yet but when I do it'll most likely be the Avon Cobra. Looks like that'll happen sometime this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primebeef Posted February 3, 2011 Share #6 Posted February 3, 2011 Haven't replaced any of my tires yet, but when I do it will be with the Avon Venom. Ran them on my other bikes and loved them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainJoe Posted February 3, 2011 Author Share #10 Posted February 3, 2011 (edited) sorry Rick but this poll is for people currently running on the Darkside. Understandably, MOST motorcycle riders use motorcycle tires... Perhaps a poll could be started "what MC tires do you use on front and back"? then we could see what the majority of riders are using?

Thanks Joe I think there may be some confusion to some members that may not know what the Dark Side is.....It is running a car tire on the rear of your RSV or RSTD.

Mike G in SC Posted February 5, 2011 Share #22 Posted February 5, 2011 I have Wanderer's "old Venture". He had a Khumo CT on the rear and he LOVED it. I put 1000 quick miles on it then changed out to a Venom before a big road trip. I could knit-pick,,, but I like bike tires. Can't publish what Wanderer said when I told him. LOL TED,,, Spring is coming. I will still gladly lend you the bike for a weekend if you come this way. Let me know. So,,, bike tire for me.

Mike G in SC Hey Mike When I was in Sumter, the mechanic told me about this bike. I said this is Mike's bike and told him who the original owner was. He said that "Da&&" car tire sucks. Never will he put one on his ventures. :rotf: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ponch Posted February 5, 2011 Share #24 Posted February 5, 2011 I'm running a Dunlop 404 Rear tire on the front.. Getting ready to install my 3rd CT on my bike.. I couldn't score a Kumho anywhere so I'm gonna try a Nexen this time.. Mark, The Nexen I had was very thin in the sidewalls and flexed much more than the Kumho. I wouldn't buy another one.
