Mods , please leave this thread in the CVO Breakout section.

The tyres on this model are pretty much model unique !

What tyres have you guys used for replacement to date , other than OEM ?

My 2013 here in Australia has 16,000 K's up , and the tyres will be due replacing soon , both front and rear

Michelin Commander II 240/40R18 Rear Tire gets better mileage than the Dunlop 240 by 1000 miles or more.

I first switched out the Rear for a Metezeler, Front Dunlop was still in good shape so I left it. Next change I just went back to the Dunlop. Both wore evenly and got me 7000 miles rear, 14K miles front for the Dunlop. Part number and user reviews are in that link I made, hard to find when they move it, I agree. I think I will go Avon all around next change. So far the tires are all equal for me so I go with what I find on sale.

I left the Dunlop on. It had plenty of miles left but ultimately only got 12,000. Could have gone another 1000 or so but decided to change it. The bike ran fine with the Michelin on the back and Dunlop on front. Just replaced the Michelin rear 240 at 6000 miles due to a nail. Riding Michelin back and Dunlop front again.
