Glad you got the problem taken care of.
What pressure are you running?
I'm down to 27 and it's still a bit too hard to corner with. Front tire is a Shinko 11 and it's still got a lot of tread. Hoping the 130 Battlax 45 will help. Not going to pull a good front off though.
Hankook V12 has always worked for me with good clearance
But I've got this tire now...
The Battlax made a tremendous difference. You won't believe it. Seriously.
Well...Maybe I'll pull the Shinko off the front. Got to order a 45 Battlax now. Cheapest place??
price changes a little now and then--google it. I don't care what anyone says, I have mounted both ways but backwards gave me best results
Ditto... except for the rotation... arrows facing direction of rotation.
No actual experience with this tire, but for all weather travel, as I'm sure you are not a fair weather rider and get it all, you need the All-Season variety.
I suggest having Ride-On put in tires(front and rear). Most all bike shops carry it, and majority of bike shops recommend it instead of traditional weights. Can easily do it yourself.....purchase an 8oz. bottle, remove valve stem and squeeze in from the plastc bottle 40z. in each wheel, install valve stem and air tire up. Not only balances wheel/tire, but also eliminates a flat tire. Believe you can still Google the product for more info and video demonstration. Has worked fine for my bike for some 3yrs. now.
