Hey all, I just spent $220 putting a new front tire on my IS.
No doubt I'm going darkside for my rear tire. I ran darkside on my VTXs in the past.
Just looking for input on what tire you guys are running out here.
Also does anyone know who will install a darkside tire, and make the neccessary mods to make it fit
Thanks

I'm running and Austin Taxi Tire its profile is a little more rounded than most automotive tires so you don't have to pull it into a turn. My guy big BF Bill Ferguson is on the road fixing everybody's Valkyries from Tim buck to too and won't be back till the fall sadly.

I had a Michelin Primacy on my IS. I didn't care for it so I took it off and donated it to some Homeless Guy.

I was gonna try this one but too much swing arm work was required.....  LOL

Tom, I followed your directions and put it on over my shoulders but I couldn't get it to ignite. Do you think I may need to use some sort of accelerant? Thanks for your interest.
