I will be sure to post my findings as soon as I have them in hand. I will be stocking some of these tires. Depending on what is ordered and what I have on hand at the time in some cases these would be drop-shipped.

Thanks

so if you go faster than 93, you need to be doing a wheelie? :)
possibly interested in a pair once you test em, thanks! (3.25x18 and 2.75x18)

I guess so. If you are doing over 93 on a regular basis then you better let the rest of us in on your secrets.

haha, my bike has been sitting since probably 83 (before i was born!) got it putzing around, up to third gear once, figure i should get it licensed etc before i go too fast, i am working on title stuff shortly.
so if letting it sit that long is the secret to speed ill let yall know!

No comparisons to other tires yet but I do have some pictures. Date codes vary within the last 2 years.

Some more pictures.

The Heidenau 3.50x16 is compared to the 3.25x16 Nitto.
Just slightly larger as it should be as it is a 3.50 vs. 3.25.

The outer tires below are the 2.75x18 and 3.00x18 Heidenau. The center used tire is an old Continental 3.00x18 on a Superhawk rim.

If you have any other questions just let me know.

Thanks,
Kevin

Kevin, Did you ever get any riding time on these tires? I am interested in the Dream tires.
