A while back I posted info about my first set of Avon Cobra tires on my GL1800. I am now on my second set of Avon Cobras. I put them on new front and rear prior to leaving on our trip...........I have 4600 miles on them to date and they are performing just as good as the first set. They are quite, they handle extreemly well in the rain. (We hit sever weather in Ill, strong cross winds and blowing heavy rain). I was traveling about 55 mph in the rain. I was comfortable and confident with the tires. I went over some steel grate bridges and there was no, NONE, movement or tracking.
and the tires did not react to tar strips or grooved pavement...On dry roads they just perform, they stick like glue. We rode thru the mountains in CO and NY and NE Pa. Looking at them they are not showing any wear yet, the back tire has started to show the flattening they all do, and I am riding two up and pulling a loaded trailer. I keep the back tire at 42 psi and the front at 38 psi. I jsut thought I would post an update on the tires. Thank you.
