Title: Metzeler ME77 tire set
Post by MMRanch on 12/07/21 at 21:52:26

Well , my rear tire on the S-40 is about gone and the front is showing dry cracks.

So

I've been looking at the right size tire for my tubeless rims.

To be correct I would use a (120/(80 or 90) -16) or (4.60-16) Rear

and a (90/90-19) or (3.25) Front.

Those are hard to find items !

I'm Ok with the front being the 3.50-19 . If the front is pulled into a more "Round" profile by the rim being a little narrow that's OK. But the rim is made for a 90/90-19.

The rear is a 2.75" rim and should have the 120/90 instead of the 130/90 tire. It would be OK to use a 110/90-16 tubeless if there was such a thing?

I'm thinking about using the ME77 tire set in 120/90-16 and 100/90-19.

So here's the question ??? Have any of ya'll ever tried the ME77 ? :-?

Metzlers are a dam good tires , not sure about the ME77. But overall they make good tires. That’s what on the sportster , handle great & last as good as any other tire. They might stand up to your riding style.

Bike Bandit claims the Metzler Lazertech front tire works well with an ME77 rear.
