My question on tires is,  has anyone been running the Elite 3 's   How are they in the rain?  Most tires are okay on dry pavement. The true test weather a tire is good is how it handles in the rain. I need tires shortly too and I'm not sure which way to go.  I love the ride of the metzlers, but the life of that tire really sucks.    Any Metzler factory people,  I hope you see this.  Tire is fine but won't last.

Talked with several riders that use the Elite 3 on other scoots. They gave them good wet weather marks. I'm pretty sure I'll be given these a try for my front tire on the next go around. That 17" rear tire is just a mother to find anything else to try.

It's my understanding as long as they are both radials it's ok. Dunlop list the E 3 as a replacement for the front.

I am gonna try the Elite 3's   I've tries just about everything else, so why not.  Jim at Metal Dragon swears by them, so I'll give those a shot.  I ordered up a set last night from Dennis Kirk.   Should be here next week sometime.
