Tire Options for our CB1100

[misterprofessionality]

I'm running a 160 tire. Is the performance better? I don't know, I am doing it for looks. It certainly isn't worse though. The tire works great. My big change was going from the stock tires that were on the bike when I got it, to a Conti Road Attack CR (classic race) 2 tire. OMG, totally transformed the bike. I will never mount another tire! These are sticky and transform the handling. I know they probably not wear as well as my stock tires, but the improvement is worth it. I never scrub these out to the outside edge, and believe me I use ALL the handling this bike can manage (my feelers were ground-off long ago). BUT, the grip and performance of the tire is absolutely shocking compared to the stock kit.

well yea, those stock bridgestone tires are basically cruiser tires. they're universally awful for any kind of spirited riding. you could have gotten literally anything else sport-touring oriented and it would have been a massive improvement.
