Bridgestone, Avon, and metzler make them, usually need a nut cage mod to fit, lowers bike, also runs a little higher rpm at speed than the oem. They handle well, don't seem to last as long, I've had a couple. Hoser BTW, I am talking bike tire.

195-55-16 works good an no nut cage cutting required . the smaller tire will give less bump stear= better handling at low speeds.I have gons thru two 205s an on my second 195 .I like the 195 better an it only cost $75
