Avon Distanzia tires

[Shovel Jockey]

Has anyone ever tried Avon Distanzia Tires on their XS/TX 650? I know they are a dual sport/super motorad tire but I understand they are a 90% on road, 10% off road tire that handles real well on the highway,has a great wear rating and a 10mm rear tread depth. any thoughts? kinda of an interesting tread design...........

I'm putting a set on my cb 750 tomorrow, so I'll let you know, according to my tire guy (pretty knowledgable,) they're going to have outstanding grip charactoristics vs my current dunlops 491's.

No, crashed on thursday morning, breaking the bike I was going to re-shoe.

Guess new rubber will have to wait a bit. . . . .


crashing sucks.
