radials and bias ply on same bike.....

[Riley Harlton]

All montreal KListeRs. There does seem to be a lot of us. I was thinking the same thing about a get together. I would really like to meet some riders who know some good dual sport areas around Montreal. I was thinking we could meet at the Orange Julep, easy to find, somewhat central. How is next tuesday, the 14th, around 8pm for everyone? Riley A15 with blown rear shock...sniff

Sounds good to me, but where is that Orange Julep ? Henrik A13. Ps: what did you do to that shock Riley ?

I don't think it is a problem because that is the way my bike came from the factory. The front is bias ply and the rear a radial. Please let us/me know how you like these Avons. I will need tires in a month and was seriously think of these. Only thing different I was thinking of getting a radial for the front when I do purchase them. Having a 19" front has really limited my choices. Thanks Charlie T 00 Peg Date: Sun, 05 Aug 2001 06:55:34 -0000 From: dknielsen@... Subject: recently ordered some avon tires for my KLR and when they arrived I found out that the front is a bias ply and the rear is a radial. The avon rep told me this is acceptable for this type of bike. They are distanzia AM43 and AV44 you can see them on the avon web site. I always thought mixing radials and bias ply tires was a no-no. anyone have any thoughts? CanadaKLR A13
