F3 Rear Tires

[deer30084]

I am at 10,500 miles on my stock Kenda tire. I expect to get at least another 5,000 miles. I will post pictures when I finally decide to get a new rear tire. So if I get at least 15,000 miles out of a stock Kenda tire, don't you think that is good? How many miles do you think you should get out of a motorcycle tire?

If I can get 30k mi. out of a automobile rated tire for less than $100, I'm going with an auto tire Every time.
And since the Spyder doesn't lean, I don't see where it needs a "motorcycle" tire.

Question - have you ever seen a tire that looks like the Kenda tire on a Stock Motorcycle ????? …….. No, because the Kenda is a CAR tire... The Kenda has a " J" type bead and that is what ALL car wheels use...….. Annnnnnnnnnnnd on the Kenda sidewall it states " for special Mtc. use only "...which isn't what it says on all REAL Mtc. tires ………….. Not jmho ….. Mike :thumbup:

T1R comes in 225 /50R15. 91V. IMHO the best option for a Spyder

Sadly they are NOT available here in the US or I would have one! Still looking for one that with shipping doesn't break the bank! :-(

Goodyear New 215/60R15 Goodyear Assurance CS Tripletred AS 93T Ebay $85 This will be the best thing you can do for your Spyder. I have already put 30,000 miles on one, and about to order another.

Well I'm back and I got over 10,000 miles on the Yokohama S Drive tire. Now it's time to buy another rear tire. I have mixed feelings about this tire. I have to admit that 70% of the time, I was riding 2-up and pulling a trailer. When I'm on it by myself I can light-up the back tire quite easily even though it's 6ES, so some of the mileage I left at a traffic signal. :doorag: Any suggestions on buying another one or something new?

This is the latest tire for the Spyder and a few here have gotten them a few weeks a go but no reports yet. "click: https://www.lamonstergarage.com/kenda-kanine-kr20-rear-tire-for-the-can-am-spyder-lamonster/

Do you think they're just feeding me a line of:cus:

Yes. My "dealer just says "NO" and that's that. Love my Kumho ECSTA AST 225/50R15. The Krappy Kenda was gone in 9K because at simply 55 MPH + it's a balogne roll when the weak arse center bulges from the speed.

Got my Kumho online and got it mounted at an independent power sports shop in SC.
