Canadian Tire Choices

My personal choice is Avon's but seem hard to get in the UK these days. They seem to have more longevity and handle well.

 

We used Bridgestone T41 on our former Bonnie's.

 

Most modern tyres are very good, but everyone has there own little prejudices..... I'm not a big Dunlop fan, I never settled on my Suzuki SV650S and blamed the tyres, and my mechanic frowned when I suggested Avon Trailriders for my CL500.... don't know why, I know people who swear by them!

Ended up on Metzeler Tourance for that chunky off-road look, and they seem fine!

 

Review of Bridgestone T33 in magazine - good grip and harder centre compound on rear tyre for increased mileage over previous T32.

Might be worth a look.

 

Sorry can’t help with tyre choice. It’s interesting that in Canada you seem to speak/write American not English. Obviously in certain areas French too.
Has American been officially recognised as the language of Canada or has it just crept in?
Language is interesting to me, the way it changes and evolves with each generation.

 

Ha! Ha! Language is wonderful. My brother moved to Canada and soon after he messaged me to say they were settling into the house, but he had just been to the lumber yard to buy some timber, and they were buying a new stove for the kitchen too.

I jokingly replied, no, you've been to the diy store for some wood, and you're getting a new cooker!

Years ago my secretary had a pen-pal, I think also in Canada, might have been the USA, who asked her if we had refrigerators in Scotland, it's a unit for keeping food fresh in. She stopped writing to her!!

The band WAX did a good song in the 80's, American English.

 

I suppose I should have mentioned that I put road tyres on my CB500X "adventure" bike and rode that for 7 years - Pirelli Angel ST. For some sizes it might have to be GT's.

Good grip, good price, average mileage around 5,500 - 6,000 miles on back tyre. Last set were made in India though, seemed fine but worth mentioning.
