They have got what looks like good, deep rain removing grooves, high speed rating and claims of high mileage. Like I posted earlier, I have BS on both of my CB's, the Z900RS and the GS1100E I am also working on.
Just looking on the internet for tires, not needed yet, but tube tires are tough to find. I found a BS 150/70R-18 Battlax Adventure Cross Tourer AX41T G, tube tire for the rear. I think it is made for the Africa twin, but it does have a tube.

Avon tires rock, reviews on it are great, and it was all of $105. by the way, anyone in Northern Cai want to buy slightly used Pirelli Angels GT 160/60/18 and 120/7018? Less than 1000 miles on both, they just didnt work for me the bike has wobbling issues (that might be in my head) and the stock sizes seem better. The tires look good. $100 for both you pick up. Also know a local guy who will install them ON THE BIKE for $30/each.
Think the 160 might be just a little too wide for our rims to cause the wobbling?

Everyone else who tried 160 has no complaints. It seems only I had that issue. Now that I'm back to stock size the bike seems more stable. Where I ride there are nasty crosswinds and that could be a factor too, and if I'm behind a truck the bike wobbles some. When you put a 160 on a 140 rim you are pinching the tire and instead of a larger contact patch you may have a smaller one. Anyway for those who like the 160 rear and 120 front I have 1 of each for sale, they have maybe 1000 or less miles you can have both for 100 bucks, pickup only, in Carmichael CA
