I've got Dunlop K491 Elite II on my Eldo. Just took it to WVa for some
riding in the hills with some 200x Triumph Trophys where it
rained/drizzled most of the day on Saturday. The bike was sure footed
all the time even up to around 70 mph. Even with two up in the pouring
rain (couldn't see the tail lights of the car in front of us in Kansas)
never felt a slip. And they seem to last pretty long as well.

my only problem is i'm running michelin macadam 50 in the front right now, and i don't wanna mismatch, but i don't think it would be too bad (i'm only going extremely short trips now that it's cold ( acouple miles or less..). i was gonna run one more michelin back tire than switch front and back.....but since it's october and i'm in ohio - maybe i should be looking for a tire that does good on wet streets...any suggestions? |
