Topic: Tire question

[grcamna2]

Do any of you know if Avon makes tires for my CB350 in stock in. sizes ? they're 3.00 x 18" fr. and 3.50 x 18" Rr. How about in the AM26's ? I think they're great tires

Don't think so, camna.  You change your mind on the IRC's?

Stev-o, I'm still researching,wondered if Avons came in those small sizes,if I could get those it'd be a 'grippier' ride.The IRC GS11AW's are OK for my use but I think you could go w/ some stickier rubber on your RD,w/ the way it handles  .

Yeah, but I want the vintage look on it.  Think I'm going Dunlop K81

Does Dunlop still make the K81 ? That's what I had on my RD in the 70's and they STUCK to the road

Yes, but its 4.25/85-18", quarter inch wider than the 4-18" I currently have on it. Too wide?

I know ! the bigger/wider the tire,the less nimble the bike will be,I'll keep looking into the 'search' thing... Yours takes a 3.25 x 18" Fr. & a 3.50 x 18" Rr. stock,correct ? Maybe there's an 'RD' forum that might help ?!

Just a link to a thread on another forum about those great Avon tires: http://www.thegsresources.com/_forum/showthread.php?t=222464

Have you looked at the Shinko 712's or 230's for your bike?
Bridgestone? S11's or BT45's.
