Although happy with the actual tyres - not so with the fitting - there is bad vibration from the front tyres I don't think that they were properly balanced. The car was booked in at 10 am and I was asked what time I wanted it back - 2 pm but I saw that the cart didn't go in until after 12 pm - they rang and asked where the locking nut was. I didn't get the car back until 3.30 pm. I need to get the tyres rebalanced as it is not safe.

Dunlop K555 Front in 1990 Honda PC800

Revzilla is great!! Ordered 3 tires from Revzilla 2:30 PM one day, they were @ my front door by 2:30 the following day. You just cant beat that!On to the tires: (I preface this by saying that I only purchased a front tire; not a set for this bike) Owning a 25 year old PC800 doesn't offer lots of tire choices. Only Dunlop and Metzler offer match sets. I have always gone with the Dancing Dunlops. (Google it) Like the bike, they're technology is 25 years old but again, like the bike, they're incredibly reliable and I have always been supremely confident in them. However, on this last purchase something was different. The tire seemed lighter, thinner, less robust. My imagination? Maybe. The outside looked identical to what I have been buying forever but the inside was ... MoreRevzilla is great!!

However, on this last purchase something was different. The tire seemed lighter, thinner, less robust. My imagination? Maybe. The outside looked identical to what I have been buying forever but the inside was different. It wasn't "finished" like I was used to seeing. It was (is) crude. You couldn't go with balance beads with this tire. Any previous Dunlops were almost machined looking inside. These looked like bicycle tires inside. The difference? Now they are made in Indonesia rather than Japan. There IS a difference no matter what they tell you.Welp, now the tire is mounted and I admit that so far, it goes round and round like it oughta. However, had I previously known all of this, I would have gone for a full set of the Metzlers. (But gee... aren't some of them now made in Brazil?)

Durability

As far as durability they're just okay compared to Bridgestone Excedra Max. I bought these because the delay to get the Bridgestone was too long and I couldn't wait.Historically I get much less kilometers with the Dunlops but apparently they're better in the rain, since I rarely ride in the rain I cannot really tell.Overall it's not a bad tire though as a replacement to the Excedra Max.

Exceptional Service

Having purchased several motorcycle parts from Fort Nine over the past few years, I am totally satisfied with not only the quality of their products but also their expertise and quick delivery. The manufacturer of my motorcycle tires year was very current which is impressive knowing that Fort Nine sells a product that does not sit on shelves for any length of time.

Good Tires ....Good price,.. Delivered on time

I shopped around for tires and I must say Dennis Kirk had cheaper price than most on the Dunlop tire I needed .It came actually a day early .I have bought other things through the site and never had a problem .The Dunlop tire feels good on my bikeHandles well in curves ..I bought this bike that had Dunlops that were 19 years old on it .I had to drive the bike home 467 miles mostly 55 mph or sbove.....They did just fine ....Dunlop tires may be a harder tire but you will get your mileage out of them

Good tire sticks well, safety is built into it.

I have had a K555 on my bike prior. It is one of the few wide whitewall tires I can find in my bikes size, and can be ran with a tube as I have spoked wheels requiring a tube. I found a sharp screw imbedded about 3/8 to 1/2 inch in my prior K555 after it was about 3/4 worn. I removed it expecting to have to get the tire repaired. As the pressure stayed up a week, I decided to run it. It stayed up a year, and I ran it until I wore it out. Never lost the first pound of air. I hate it is a bias ply tire as that means less milage but I feel very safe on it.

Nice Rubber!

This tire has always performed well. My riding includes 90% daily highway commuting and 10% twisties. I get usually 7-9k mi before the center goes bald, would probably go further if I was leaned over more. :)

Perfect tire replacement on my PC 800

Perfect OEM fit. Great service at Cycle Gear - good price, quick mounting service, perfect balancing. I lucked out - they were able to mount while I waited and looked a extensive stuff in their showroom (bought a helmet next day). I get about 10K miles from these tires.

The only tire I'll put on my bike

This is the stock tire for my bike and I haven't tried any other. A repair shop suggested that I go with a D404 rear which is cheaper but won't last as long but I decided to stay with the K555J since it's been reliable.-m-2005 SUZUKI Boulevard C50T VL800T--

Whitewall Rubber, YEAH!

These just suit certain motorcycles and I feel this works for mine. Needed these and previous had cracks after 'a few' years.
