Pleased to see some one trying these tyres CA I am on my 3rd rear and 2nd front and are very happy with them , grip wise extremely good wear wise front is excellent the rear roughly 4000 kms with still a 1000 kms left in them

They have never let go even under extreme riding , so im sure you will be happy if grip is what your after.

cheers rod

Yikes! 5000 km = 3100 miles, so that's telling of how sticky they must be. I wish there were more choices of sport touring radial tires in the correct size or very close. The 160 width tires some are running are just a tad wide for my liking on the stock rear wheel. I suppose that's the price you pay to ride the most beautiful motorcycle made today.

CA200, I wanted to get different tires from stock that were as close as possible to oem size the conti's were it. A store called Cedar Rapids tire store aka motorcycle tire maniac got them to me in just over a week. I was just wondering how your set is working out. I'm liking mine a lot but there is a weird wiggle on the front at just above walking speed when slowing down who cares, right.

2ballde like mine a lot - very nice riding - good stick- no wiggle on mine ,check steering head bearings , make sure you didn't leave out a wheel spacer or put the wrong one in - left /right when you put it back to gather .Also make sure the tire is on in the direction.

I just put Avon AM26 Roadriders in the stock size on my '13 CB1100 and road 2800 miles of freeways and mountain two lane blacktop for the past two weeks.
They handled and rode very well.

Edit: The front end loves to dance on Michigan's parallel grooved roads now. I little disconcerting at first.

I've had Contis on a couple bikes a few years back. They wore out fast but stuck good. The newer versions should last longer, I'm hoping

ContiMotion is my only experience of Contis and it wasn't that good. See this post:

OK, my experience of Contis is limited, but I would have to say that Ken Wheeler was less than enthusiastic about the brand.

Cheers.
