Hi Vince,
My personal favorites are the Continental Blitz TKH23 110/90-18 front
and Conti-Tour TK17 120/90-18 rear. Each lasts me 12-14,000 miles on
average, great handling and braking wet or dry and are reasonably
priced.

I'm trying a set of the S11s on the '72, but have no experience with
them. I did find them to be a bit harder to mount (without a machine),
don't know if it's due to a stiffer sidewall or what. Cheers,

Time for new tires.
I'm leaning toward the Bridgestone S11 110/90/18, but I'd like to hear
from the group about their experiences.
I do a combination of highway and street, occasionally 2 up.
Thanks.
Vince in NY
