I am about to order Avon radials to replace the stock excedras. Does anyone have the Avon AV45 AV46 setup ? (F-110/70/17, R-140/80/17).
I am told they fit our rims, and that the only difference in "feel" is a very slightly taller rear, (aspect ratio) almost not noticeable, and that radials are far superior. Comments?
That is the exact setup I have...and I love it.
I also put on a Katana rear shock and progressive front springs so I can't comment on how much a difference the tires made...my whole bike rode different. That being said, the bike is much better. More solid and very confidence inspiring now.
:::EDIT:::
I did wet test the Avon's this past sunday with a ride out to Infineon Raceway with The Good Guy and they didn't break once...
if yur lookin for sticky grip try the perilli sport demons, they are a bias tire that mimic radials. im getting ready to odr some sport demons when i get the cash flow. ;)
I have an avon46 rear- and I also put in a kat shock... The back does raise and the bike is soooo much more responsive. The grip is fantastic- I really like the tire. I have a pirelli dragon up front and they match up fine.
