Keith, I used dunlops front and rear. They are both the same tire as
designed to fit Honda shadow classic. I'll have toget the # for you as the
bike is at another location. I will say that the bike handles extremely
well with no funny shapes on the front wheel as is so common with other
things I've seen on eldo's. They do appear to be very soft though as I'm
approaching 4000 miles on the back one and I think it will do about 6. Mark
and Bill have both ridden it so their opinions as to the handling are more
expert than mine. I am completly satisfied with them except I might prefer
a harder compound which might last longer. However, with that 1000cc motor
in mine, my throttle hand is partially to blame. I'll get you those #'s in
a day or so

| Just checked out the new pics on the Loopframe site and am lusting over the pics of Tom Emerson and Bill Kerylow's machines with the white wall tires. I just bought a set of Conti K112's per recommendation of Harpers MG and Cycle Garden, have not yet installed them. Was wondering what brand name tires these guys used and if anyone else knows what I can use. Harpers recommended the Conti K112's for original look and handling. I hear deviating may make the front end feel heavy. If Discount Tires in CO will take these tires back, would like to swap them for the White Walls. Appreciate any info! Thanx!
