Getting New Avon Cobra's Installed

[Itse saatana]

I´m currently riding Avon Cobras on my bike. Had them on when I bought the bike. Got no reason to go for anything else. Great tires!!!

Many people here in Finland order their tires from Germany since they have much more reasonable prices and even faster delivery than local dealers. I believe dealers here also don´t stock Avons so bigger dealers in Germany make sense in that way too.

Avon do make a 240 tire for the R3R rear and it's AMAZING!

AVON 240/50 R16 (84V) COBRA AV72 - myNETmoto, that is the rear tire for the Rocket and here is for the Touring TRIUMPH ROCKET III TOURING 23XC Motorcycle tyres - myNETmoto

I used to buy tires for my ex-Harley and ex-Triumphs from them so I guess I´ll buy some in the future too.

little more $ than the bridge,worth the $? mileage?handling?they dont have the 55 so its back down to the 50?

I thinks it's worth the cash. I don't really care for stones, I don't like the feel. For me, and my riding, the stickier Avon is well worth the money.

Anything is an improvement on the Stock Metzlers, but I feel the Avons have smoother cornering characteristics and are quieter than stones. Stones have better wet grip in my opinion.

All the "things" that had to come off the bike just to get the wheels off for new tires smh! My front was cupping and my rear down to the wear indicators, 8500 miles. The wheels are in the shop now getting fitted with Avon Cobras.

8500 miles is pretty darn good for a OEM rear tire!
My Metzeler gave only 5K and several Exedra Max 7-8K (NO burn-outs).
