On my Hog I have had two sets of ME 888 come apart, literally throw the tread off.
Like a truck tire would.
I was running heavy 80 and 90 MPH all day (back from Sturgis ) Both times.
You may have better luck.....
But no more for me.
AVON Cobras! So far so good.
They went to Sturgis and back. no complaints.

Date code doesn't look right. First two numbers are the week, next two numbers are the year. Bike came out in 13...should be a 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 on the end.

I'm an Avon Cobra fan. As soon as these are worn out I'll change to Avon.
I have Dunlop E-4's and they are just fine..No issues at all and intend to run them again when these wear out...Some like the Avon tire a lot and they get good reports...No experience with Metzlers, but many do not like them much....I would recommend the Dunlop if it were my bike...Regards and ride safe
I used to run E3's and have changed back to Stones because they feel more sure-footed on wet pavement.
What kind of mileage do you get on your Avon’s. Assuming you’ve used them on a big bike.
I change my tires as soon as i see significant wear. Generally around 10K but it varies on the long distance, heavy loads I do. I know others that get more but I hate getting stranded by bad tires. I should add that I used them on my old GW, this F6B and my other bikes.
I run Avon's on the F6B as I did on the Valkyrie. Always had good luck.
Your mileage will vary greatly on these bikes all due to how you ride, type of roads you ride on and also temperatures.
Yeah, a memory typo. LOL.Ya, he either had a "typo" error, or he read the wrong thing.
