I took the B-King out last weekend for a group ride during our local "Bikes Blues and BBq" bike Rally...

One of the guys managed to catch a couple of nice shots of me playing around in the corners.

Nice pics...what tires did you settle on? Price? I found a nail in my back tire the other day, but it's holding pressure fine so far...

I decided to go with the Pilot 2CT's.
They Grip very well... but aren't gonna last me long.

I paid something like $315 for the pair, out the door.

So for a pussy like me the tires should last 10,000 miles right? Did you get them at William Eddie's?

Yep.... William Edwards it was, and since you have upgraded your curvy line riding I would say probably not 10,000 miles.... More like 7,000 Very Happy

All I can say is BT 016's. There is no transition in sidewall movement & f__k they grip on fast!!!

Yeah they are good tires... Careful when cold but there've got no grip till they have some tempreture in them

Ditto's on the Michelin Pilot Powers- 120 Front and 190 Rear- Got 7,000 + on my current set. Front is still in pretty good shape, but the rear is tracked flat in the middle, so it's like riding a railroad tie. Gonna get another set though from ridedirect.com- less than $300 for the 2
