My CB came with the OEM dunlops. I picked up a nail in the rear tire at 7200 miles and the front tire was looking pretty bad so I replaced them with the Bridgestone BT54s. After 7300 miles, the front tire was worn down to the wear bars so I looked into replacing the front. I could not find the BT54s on any of the major internet tire sellers, so I went with the Bridgestone BT45s (bias ply and V rated). After a few hundred miles so far so good. Hopefully Bridgestone will still sell this tire when it comes to replacing the front tire.

If michelin made the correct rear tire size, I would go with the PR3s but I'm reluctant to put an oversized tire on the rear. Call me crazy, I guess. Smile
