New tires!

[michael1954]

I am also in the market for some new rubber.

My Cb1100 is a 2017 plate however the codes on the tires say 2014 so guessing these are the originals and also the inner tubes.

Being some 10 years old they do feel a little hard and not very grippy in the wet. Originals fitted are 110/80 R18 and 140/70 R18

I see a few of you changed from stock size?

What is the recomended alternative sizes?

Was looking at Bridgestone T32 which i assume can run with tubes?

I can get the original D205's but they are quite expensive and many touring/sports tyres get better right ups?

I kept stock sizes, just to make it easy and the size has never been an issue with handling. I definitely bought two new tubes from Honda off the "PartsFish.com website". Much better price than any store. I also replaced the spoke protector strip on each rim, to make each setup brand new. Now all I got to do is get my health back up to steam and get riding. I am just about there! And yes, the T-32 and BT54 both use tubes on the EX.
