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

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.

i use a bridgestone sport touring tire bt021 off the top of my head??? VERY LONG lasting tire, burnouts forever and plenty of grip for circles.
