My tire order

[john grinsel]

Not happy with rear Kenda tire on my 2019 XTown 300I----At 3500 miles wearing fast and SQUARE...but will run it out to wear bars.

But in spite of good luck with Michelin Power Pure SC 120/70-13 on both Silverwings  and Burgman 400.....got 11,000 miles from rear on Burgman.....I ordered Michelin City Grip in proper size/150/70-13 S from Dennis Kirk.....just to try/compare to Power Pure SC.

May  be a couple of months until it goes on----I use "Ride On" as balance medium, which adds $15 cost to each tire change.  I do own tire work/change myself-----get older you need longer tire irons!

I sympathize.  I have a rear tire out in the garage which needs to go on a KLR.  The older I get the more I hate mounting tires, especially rear ones.

Put "Ride-on" in the tires yesterday.  Have only ridden 35 miles since, but I'd swear the tires feel heavier, making the scoot feel more attached to the road.  Also think it feels more stable at higher speeds.  Glad you mentioned it, John.
