Hi All,
Like most of you, I'm trying to figure out which tires to buy for my C-10. I'm looking for good traction (especially in the rain) and good handling for semi-aggressive riding. I like the Avon Azaro on the rear but only get 6k miles out of them. I've looked into Dunlop Elite 3s and Avon Venoms. From all the reviews I've read they don't seem to fit my requirements.
The Avon AM 26 Roadriders (bias ply) can be had in our sizes (110-80-18 front, 150-80-16 rear) and I've seen good reviews for traction/handling/wear. But the Avon site says they are for mid-range bikes even though the load ratings are comparable to Azaros and Storms. I've looked at reviews on tire sites and they are favorable including a couple good reviews from Connie riders. But I can't find any mention of them on this forum.
Any of you have any experience with them?
