    New tire preferences?

    Somehow I picked up a small nail/tack right in the center of the rear tyre... Thought I'd ask if ya'll have any strong preferences over stock replacements? I run Pirelli DRII's on my XB12 and I don't track either of the bikes but I do hit the Smokey and Blue Ridge Mtns on occasion!

    That's worse than asking what oil should I use!

    Very strong incoming opinions in 3...2...1...

    So heres mine:

    Get the stickiest tires you can afford to keep replacing.



    You MUST post the 'I-need-a-new-rear-tire-burnout-to-destruction-video' on here! lol

    FYI I have been getting amazing tire deals from here:

    X2 on Rocky Mountain for tires and parts. I've been buying from them since the 80's.

    I just got a set of continental SportAttack 3's on my bike. I feel more comfortable with those over the stock pirellis.
