Michelin Pilot Road 3s...I joined the club

Looked in my Honda Owners Manual for tire recommendations for the 2017 CB1100 CA (EX) and CB1100 NA (RS) models.

The recommended EX tire is the Dunlop 205 which is the Sportmax Touring tires that are on the bike. Unfortunately I have not found a source for them in North America. Road tires with tubes are passe. Apparently these are radial tires with radial tubes.

The Dunlop Motorcycle Tire representative in Dayton, Ohio that I spoke to is looking into it for me. The person in the Parts Department of my Powersports Canada dealer found radial tubes, but no tires. He thinks that the only source may be Honda Canada.

The recommended RS tubeless radial tires are Bridgestone Battlax, Dunlop Touring T30, Dunlop Road Smart III. As you are aware these are readily available.
