Need 120/70/21
« on: August 21, 2014, 09:59:01 AM »
Any suggestions for this size in a front tire? I've got the Dunlop on the rear but the front ahs a bigger wheel. On a road glide and two up most of the time. Good place to buy.

I have this on my Titan Gecko Stretch:  Metzeler ME880 Marathon 120/70-21 Front Tire

Good tire.  "Designed for heavier customs and Touring models."

I hear its good, thats what was on the front and back. I decided to change the back to a Dunlop because the weight rating for the 880 wasn't near high enough for the RG by itself. Now after Susie and me and the gear, well you get the picture. I wonder if I mix them I'll be ok?

I agree with Greg on the Metzeler, been my go to tire for 15yrs. But my Son runs this on his 21" CUSE and swears its the best ride he ever had. Opinions=Azzholes
