Tires Barum or Shinko
Might I suggest some Shinko’s. I got 16k out of the back tire I got for my Goldwing, 12k+ of those were overloaded doing 80-90 across the country and through the Rockies.
Pros: high mileage, impressed
Cons: overloaded
Mileage: 16000 km
Get the shinko 777, they’re great. Stickiest compound tire I run and I have no issues in the rain. Great for wheelies too
Pros: stickiest compound, great wheelies
Cons: none
- Have been running Shinko 777 tires on my FLHRSI which I'm very happy with, but am going with the longer lasting Shinko 999 tires next.
Pros: very happy with
Cons: going with longer lasting
Shinko SR777 HD (reinforced) tires on my '04 FLHRSI as best bang for the buck given how ex$pen$ive the premium tires are these days. It helps to check the psi more often for longevity though.
Pros: best bang for buck
Cons: check psi more often
I run shinko 777 in the rear. It's cheap and I like them. The compound is a bit hard so you'll lose cold weather performance. But I ride in 45 degrees and above and haven't had issues with them.
Pros: cheap, user likes them
Cons: lose cold performance
I have shinko 805/804s, they are pretty identical to the 606s, and I absolutely love them. If you balance them well they ride good at 75mph, and handle dirt fantastic.
Pros: handle dirt fantastic
I switched to the shinko 244 front and have loved the d606 rear combo. It dives into the corners on the road and will give you about 80% confidence on the dirt.
Pros: dives into the corners
Ran a set of 777s on my sportster and they are great tires ! Was very happy with them.
Pros: great tires
I have been using Barum tires with no complaints. They perform well on my 2012 W204 and cost a lot less than Michelin / Pirelli / Continental /etc
Pros: good performance, low cost
Had them in 245/45r18. Really comfortable, fuel efficient, good grip but average feedback. I was really happy with them until i had to do an emergency brake and the car just kept going. Afterwards I went and read tyre tests and all tests confirmed that their braking is horrible both in dry and wet.
They are dangerous in emergency situations
Pros: comfortable, fuel efficient, good grip
Cons: horrible braking, dangerous
