A lot of reading seems to show that the Michelin Commander II is the longest lasting tire out there.
They have a 110/90 for the front of my 76 Wing.
The rear of my bike uses a 120/90 17. Michelin doesn't make that in a rear tire, just a front.
My reading seems to indicate that the only difference between a front and a rear is Aramid fibers in
the rear tire. I'm thinking of putting a front tire on the rear.
Anyone done this? Any input on this idea? I can't get a long lasting rear tire in that damned 17 inch size.
