That New Tire Smell
- Thread starter kickstandsup
- Start date
I'm waiting for a fresh batch of Dunlop Trailmax Mission's from Revzilla. They will be my 3rd set and I get about 18K miles out of them.
They are my go-to tires for the big GSA.... YMMV

For the GS, I just mounted a cheap set of A3's ($215 for the pair). In the tire closet I have another set of A3's and a set of TA3's, and a set of Bridgestones for the Wing.
I buy when I find deals and keep a few sets around.

I ordered the Road 6s b/c Michelin had a $50 rebate and who knows how the supply chain will be...I'd rather have them sitting in my garage, patiently waiting...
I've got a set of Shinko 230s waiting for my 78 CB750K.
I've heard good things about the 712's on 4 continents, I'd have gotten them but supply shortages were just beginning and 230's were available in the sizes I wanted on the day I was ready to buy.
Well, I'd have bought the 712s for both ends but I'm sure you remember my dilemma with first availability and then sizing, which caused me to buy the 250 for the front. I hoped it would work as well as the 712 on the rear and in fact, it did.
I just spooned on some new Pirelli MT16s on my new to me spare wheel set for my Honda CRF450RL. Went with UHD 4mm tubes and Warp 9 rim locks F/R. Plan to balance them this week! Looking forward to getting them in the dirt!

I'm going to install a new front Avon Trailrider in a couple days when the weather warms up.
Got my Michelin rebate today for the Road 6s. Time for some beer... ;)
I'd save it for gas...

I have an un-fair advantage, lots of new tire smell round here
These are goin on Thursday!
That's very true!
Got a set of shinko 705's (I'm Cheap) I'm gonna try on a r1100r, try to make it a little more dirt road friendly. I live 8 miles from pavement.
Had a set of those on my DR. Wasn't a fan. 244s are my go tos now.
