    Original tires

    Hello all. I'm about to sell my valk and take the plunge with a new F6B. Quick question, I have had 2 new Hondas in the past and the Dunlops they come with have always been a bit of a bummer. My Valk now has Avon Venoms that I love. How are the stock tires? Anyone just switch em out right away? If I sell the valk quick enough I migh be able to use some Honda bucks on tires. Thanks all!

    I got no complaints with the OEM's.....of course the rear is on my spare wheel taking up space in the garage, and the C/T is on the bike.

    I'll be coming up ready for some new tires in the near future. I really have no complaints with the stock Bridgestones. I've really liked the Avon Cobra
    Tyres on my Valkyrie and have contemplated changing to them . They are a little more expensive though I believe. Has anyone here tried the Cobras on their F6B?

    The stockers were good enough to get me through a very close call collision and I dragged my first peg this past weekend and never felt any lack of confidence in these rubbers. Thumbs up to the stockers. Spend your bucks on fogs.

    I love the Avons on the Valk. but the dun'flops that were on the old shadow and and ST1300 that I had (more the 1300) were not up to par as far as I thought. Seems like there are some pretty good reviews! Thanks all for your $.02 and im psyched to find a good group (as I did with the valk) to chat with! I cant wait to get up on my F6B! Hopefully within the next few weeks!
