Hiya fellas,

As per title really.

My current Tourances are coming to the end of their life and I've decided that I really don't need a tyre with any off road ability whatsoever so not looking at Tourance, Tourance Exp, Anakee 2/3's etc.

Can anyone share their experiences of running pure road tyres on their steamers. I've had a heads up for BT45's and online feedback seems ok.

Any advice as always appreciated in advance.

Cheers

you'll do fine with the BT 45's on the steamer ..................they work ok on a bonneville ,  :thumbsup
