Has anyone tried on of these yet? They have it in a 180/65-16.

180/70/16 is the stock Valk size, a 65 series tire of the same width will be slightly smaller in circumference causing a slight increase in cruising speed RPM. Sounds like it would be a good Goldwing replacement tire as they use a 180/60 stock. It's a Michelin so I would think it would perform very well.
Never tried one but I would if it came in stock Valk size or a bit taller size.
