Motorcycle Forum / General / Yamaha / January 2005Really need some input
Hi everyone, I'm new to the list. I have a 2003 Roadstar and am in need of new rubber. I am having ab hard time deciding between the Dunlop 491 Elite II, the dunlop Cruisemax, and the Metzeler 880's. What do you believe to be the best of these tires. I am interested in the best cornering and handling first and mileage second. I really could use some advice here, especially those who have run the Metzelers. I've only run the dunlops that were OE on the bike from the first owner. > Hi everyone, I'm new to the list.

They get maybe 4,000 to 5,000 miles before the compound is gone and then the tread just vanishes. But Dunlop's do that and handle shitty so that's why I think the Metzler 880 is a better tire. el Diablo >> Hi everyone, I'm new to the list. I have a 2003 Roadstar and am in need of >> new rubber.
