Supermax was good, but the Avon Stom is MONEY

I almost feel like I'm cheating. Its the best overall rear tire I've used to date. Anyone else been on it yet?

Its the business. Monster tread depth, super compound, and long lasting. By far the sickest tire Ive ever tried. Its the 636 of tires. It does everything good!

ahhahah!

Scotty, no its a sport touring tire, super wide circles, super drifts, super circle sets. And I think its an extra 3mm or so tread depth so that sumbitch lasts.

Guru, both, but try and destroy all, trust me. I'm on my second one now, I waited to be sure they really are that good. My bike that got back from El Salvador had a Maxxis on it so I was able to back to back compare the two over the last two weeks. The Avon honestly was the winner. Not by a HUGE margin but by enough to where I wont go back.

D, yeah that supermax was my choice for almost a year. Give it a shot, may be my preference but there is no way you wont like it if the Supermax style is your thing.

This = the sex

Re: Supermax was good, but the Avon Stom is MONEY

I did go on rants about bringing danger back, and i knew one of you two would be the one to do it. But grabbing a mitt full of front brake on a sport touring tire seems like a bad idea.

Re: Supermax was good, but the Avon Stom is MONEY

been looking around for a long lasting tire for my 1000rr. all the guys on the 1000rr forum recommended a few but they use **** that wears out in no time, but sticks to the road like glue. i'll give this one a try for sure.
