Bridgestones are the tire of choice for most Wing riders. Valk riders like Avons, metzlers, and Dunlop E3s. My local MC tire guy told me today that he is having lots of trouble getting Stones. His latest info is that he has no idea when he'll get anymore. He sells about 100 tires a month.

I have Bridgestone exedras on my Valk and my Honda Ace...  Been on them for 2 years. I have no complaints at all with them.  They handle well with no problems in the twisties.  My .02

An Excedra is the same size, it is a bit more expensive, yes it does last longer than a gs850.  Both are good tires and handle and ride well. Had a couple of those. too. Hoser
