I'm with Dennis on Nashville Motorcycle Repair, and if you take the wheels off and bring them in they're a lot faster.

I have been using the Michelin anakee adventure lately and am very pleased with them. I have a 2016 GSA

Hey Matt, good luck on picking a tire.

There are many good tires out there but I have settled on the Anakee III for my 2006 GS 1200 (139,000 miles). On my 8th set and they last a long time, ride smooth and hold the road. Was using Tourance when I changed but never looked back once I tried the Anakee III's. Steve Lissner is who I use for tire changes and he is an excellent mechanic too.

Hey All,

I missed the picnic,had a screw in my tire. I was about to order a new set but thought I’d see what you all do for new tires. I have a 2012 gs1200. Ive been running tourance. I mostly ride street but do the dirt devil or ride to del rio/hot springs area occasionally.

I order my tires usually(revzilla), take the wheels off my bike and take everything to americas moto sports to mount and balance.

so 2 questions:

what do you like in an 80/20 tire? Haven't been riding much last 3-4 years so not sure whats out there now.

who do you use to mount and balance?

thanks.

Matt
