![]() I also mentioned in another thread here about a radial combination from Avon in a non-stock size that fit the Thrux very well and MAY fit the V7 - 110 front and 140 rear. PERFORMANCE & SUMMER TIRES ENGINEERED FOR EXTREME GRIP. All this said, no such complaints were registered from Bonnie owners check the triumphrat forums if you are curious. Tires were great everywhere with nice turn-in but the moment I got on Richmond bridge here in the Bay Area - which has massive raingrooves and is a part of my daily route - I was saying prayers to get through it. Gave them a good few hundred miles before I returned them. I weigh 200lbs, for the reference.Ī note about Avon Roadriders: it may be specific to the geometry of the Thruxton only BUT there have been a number of cases where they produced near-accident wobble on highway raingrooves. Aktivs, however, lasted me around 7K miles front and rear easily and had more to go Demons I changed at 3K. If you want to squeeze the last ounce of sport performance out of the bike, I'd recommend the Demons based on my experience. Sport Demons were stickier and gave half the life of Aktivs, which were a stellar tire with good grip and fantastic wet performance but less sporty. I saw another review on the sport demon where the guy was burning them off.said they only got 4000 miles on them. Somewhere I read the battlaxes cause a slight wobble at speed, which my bike has naturally even with good tires. IME the choice is between the Sport Demons or Aktivs. Anyway I came across the sport demons and the battleaxes. Had all of these on my Thruxton except the Contis.
