         I had city grips on my 2012 GTI 300 and was very happy with them. I now own a 2021 X-Town 300i GPS. I was thinking about putting City Grips on it for better wet weather riding. When I checked, I didn't see the correct sizes listed. Do they make the correct front and rear sizes for the X-Town. If so what's a good sources to buy them?

Stig’s right I’m in the UK so we get more choice here than you get in the US?  I bought this one from my tyre fitter so he gets the margin, but last time he couldn’t source CG2s so I went to a big motorcycle tyre seller mail order.  I bought he fitted!

Tyre fitted and about 100 miles on it now. Delighted to say handling completely restored!

One interesting aside from Martin, the fitter: “I’m seeing more & more scooters these days, it must be the fuel price increases?”….
