DARK SIDE FRONT.

I have not changed tires yet on the R3 but will this winter. I have a rear tire mounted on the front of my Valkyrie and it has performed well. I have had one experience of front-end wobble over 120mph but it may have been these crappy Arkansas Interstate Highways. I have been a bit nervous about duplicating the issue.
 
GOOD luck on that combo must steer like a dump truck

Someone ought to ask Avon or any other car and motorcycle tire manufacturer about their position(s) on mounting car tires to motorcycle wheels or rims, particularly with respect to the incompatible bead designs between the one and/or the other.

I'm guessing that their response(s) would be more than interesting for anyone interested in actual facts, albeit that they would likely be totally dismissed by some.
