Avon AM26 Roadrider Front/Rear Tire

Put a set on my 1978 CB750F and rode 900 miles so far.I get a slight weave on rain grooves.They make my bike feel new again.

My previous tire was an Avon Venum R, so i wanted to stick with the same tire, however, they do not make it anymore in my size. So i bought this one that has a 7.5mm tread dept. The tire did not install as easily as the R, but the ride so far is great. The grip seems fine in the rain also. Time will tell how it wears.

I only have about 200 miles on these tires so far, but they have been a huge improvement over my old rubber. My classic CB750 has never been so sure footed.

So far, I'm very pleased with the AM-26 Roadriders. They corner great, after a weeks use, and the ride quality surpasses other brands in recent memory. I mounted a 'universal' tire as my front and directionally backwards, even though the water displacement of the tread is backwards, and on the front tire! I've run on wet roads but not torrential rain and they seem to hold OK. I wanted to mount the rear in reverse, thinking that if the front tire would break free sooner than the rear, I wanted both to react similarly, but the good people at Chaparral convinced me to remount it honoring the directional arrow. No complaints so far and the ride is the best I've experienced on my K100RS. Color me pleased.
