Lowest price I'm finding right now is $251.27 at American Moto Tire.

Anybody have a line on a better price before I pull the trigger?

Thanks,

Thanks, but I'm looking for a V-rated tire, not an H-rated tire.

Looks like about the same price across the board. Availability seems to be no issue.

Because you are riding everywhere at max speed or close to it?

I appreciate your input, but I asked for some specific information.
I have my reasons for wanting a V rated tire and am not interested in a back-and-forth.
Thanks anyway for your assistance.

I agree with using a V-rated tire on front.
I just finished using an H-rated dunlop D404 rear on the front.  great tire but sometimes under certain conditions I got some instability from it, which I never had from the previous V-rated Conti-go same size rear tire on front.
so now my next will be a V-rated again.

The last two times I bought new tires, I used the following which both had some of the lowest prices. the powerplay site gives 5% off first purchase. good luck God Bless.

I would consider it being a Dunlop 404 causing the issue. Had them on as factory tires on my 1100 Spirit. They would wobble and cold/wet conditions really sucked and cupped near the end. A very precarious 1st. 12,000 mi. on the Spirit. Used Pirelli's 66's after that though not a option on the Valks but...

f-Stop

I have the Cobra Chrome on Hildr the Valkyrie'e front and really like it.  My supplier has it for $2.61 more than American Moto.  Nevertheless, I think it's worth it.     

Pull the trigger!

here is my recent review of the D404 rear reversed on the front.
