Need new tires, any suggestions?

[81xsproject]

I ended up getting a Kenda cruser 100 90 19. From kgmotorcycletire.com it was $61 shipped w/ CA tax. The shipping was standard UPS ground and it got here rediculaously fast (2days). What does everyone think of this tire?

Go to the top of the screen and click search and type Kenda in. You will have lots of reveiws. Here's one called Kenda Bad-Dunlop Good

But there are many more.

Never scrimp on tires or helmets...... , I live by this rule.

boy, I wish someone would have said somthing about how horrible the kendas were at the BEGINING of the post. I have already spent the cash now. I am to poor to just go throwing new tires away. So, I guess I'll take it easy on them and buy a different type at the first signs of breakdown.

IRC Tyres

Have just fitted a set of IRC RS-310 Durotour, 100/90 & 130/90, they hang on well.

That's strange. The absolute most worthless tire I ever had on an 1100 was an IRC Durotour. Brand new...one 2500 mile road trip and they were toast.

Yes I kept the air to spec. The tires were newly balance BECAUSE THEY WERE NEW! And still they lasted a whopping 2500 miles.

Maybe I just got a lemon...eh?

My friend wore out a set in one easy summers on a Suzuki 850...he didn't like the IRC's at all.

Front shows no sign of wear after 1200 miles, rear just starting to show. I dont stuff around, maybe you did get bad compounds.
