    Smile 2000 miles on the new-er AVONS

    My old bike likes funny tires sizes or that's how they rolled in '84.
    Finding tires less fun that it was just ten years ago...anyways..

    I picked up a set of AVON AM26 Roadriders.
    With about 2000 miles on them I'm happy to report that they are working very well for me and the Ninja.

    Good feedback and rain traction is awesome.

    Despite the low price they have proved themselves.

    I run those on my GS500 and they're AMAZING... Way better than the stock Bridgestone shoes.

    Agreed, RoadRiders are great tires. I run them on my Bonneville. Great road feel, awesome traction in the twisties. And the price isn't bad.

    I'm sure I could push a bit more in the twisty bits but I lack the courage.
