Ran a PR4 on the rear on the Tiger and managed 7K miles so for the cost difference between a T30 and PR4, 111.00 and 162.00 from American Motorcycle Tire, I'm going back to the T30.
Keep in mind that I run a 150/70 ZR17 and most of you run a larger size so your milage may vary.
On a side note I bought one of Harbor Freight's tire changer with the motorcycle attachment and modified it with some plastic blocks like the MoJo type so not to scratch the rim. Will be modifying the tire bar to work like the Nomar one too. Also bought a HF 170 wire feed welder to fab up the bar.
So all in all this tire change should cost around $450.00 not counting the tireBlah
Hey I'm sure to find other uses for the welder and should only take a few tire changes to pay for the equipment, at least thats what I'm telling my self
