    Has anyone tried a Michelin front tire and what was your experience. From what I can read the Commander series has much room for improvement in vibration and noise. The Road 6 has been rated at the top of at least 4 review articles however only comes in 120/70/18 (59W). Which is a notch under...

    Can anyone recommend a good Goldwing mechanic shop in Washington state/ Oregon? I'm willing to drive a distance if I have to. I bought a Goldwing last summer (my first) and I'm due a tire change and I don't want to take it just anywhere. I want somewhere with Goldwing experience. I'm close to...

    I have a 2018 Goldwing Tour. Last summer my wife and I did a one month vacation from Arizona to Montana and back. We pulled a small, 1-wheel Uni-Go trailer that was packed with only one half of the maximum weight that it can hold. Two weeks into the trip the rear tire (Metzeler Cruisetec with...

    I have a 2018 Goldwing Tour. I pull a Uni-Go trailer that weighs 70 pounds empty. The first time I pulled the trailer I had a BMW K1200. 3 out of 4 times I have pulled a trailer I have had rear tire problems. The first time the valve stem failed, releasing all the air. The second time the...

    Question 1 -Noticed that I’m showing. Going to replace both. I’m sure it’s a common subject but what are the best all around tires. It’s got 12K and I recently put 5k on in the last 4 months. I’m sure they’re the OG’s. I’m in NC so all year riding including lots of twisties and 2ups. Question 2-...

    So, I had new E3 tires put on my bike last summer. I thought the performance and mileage were okay, but recently noticed the rear tire was at the wear bars. I thought, What is that? 15,000 miles? That's okay. When I did the math, I found the rear wore out at 6,800 miles. The front is near the...

    My wife and I just returned from a trip from Minnesota through the southern states (Florida to Arizona), about 6500 miles. Before the trip, I purchased the "Gold Wing Avon Tire Combo" special from Motorcycle Super Store. I also purchased the balancing beads to keep things in balance as the...

    I ordered my tires on line. Got the Bridgestone set. Called to find someone to change them. Got a price of $275 from Mountain Motorsports. Yes I asked again to make sure. Did not use them, duh. I found this small shop close to my home in Powder Springs. Walk-er-Ride Motorcycles. They changed...

    I'm on my third set of tires on my 2012 Wing. Trying a Dunlop E3 in the back and like the faster steering. But soon I'll need a front tire. The current front Bridgestone feels good with the E3. Just wonder if I should buy another Stone, or try the full E3 experience. I usually ride within 10...

    Just got back from three days of riding and camping with a bunch of BMW GS riders. We rode on roads with names like, The Rattler, The Back of the Dragon, The Snake and one just called The Crooked Road. No problem keeping up with the Beamers and had a great time! It rained on and off but it did...

    Sorry if this is a repeat post - can scarcely believe it hasn't been discussed, but didn't find a thread with a forum search. I have 10k on the first set of OEM 'Stones on my 2012 Wing and will need to replace at least the rear tire before too many more thousand miles. This is my fourth Wing...

    Due to misfortune, so I thought, I was forced to put a Harley Davidson tire D407 on the rear wheel after my E3 separated. HD dealer was only place open in remote mountain area at the time. However, the tire has lasted 29,000 miles - far past the E3's I have put on my bike. The width is slightly...

    I'm having another set of Bridgestone tires put on my 2012. They lasted me about 8,000 miles. The front was down to the wear bars. The rear was almost there. My question is, how do you scrub in the tires? Last year, I took the Ride Like a Pro Course as a way to get used to the bike and scrub...
