I run Avon VenomX AM41/42 tires in 120/90-18 and 170/80-15 on my Yamaha V-max currently. It seems that the AM41/42 option is no longer offered in the sizes I need now.
Now, the new option is the AV71/72 Cobra tires. (Not happy with losing the best damn bias tires you can get for my ride)
I need to know if anyone has experience with both the Venoms and the new Cobras. I want to know how the newer tires stack up to the older, proven ones.
Grip in the twisties and tire life expectancy are the two big concerns. (Yes, I know when one goes up, normally, the other goes down, but I have seen some tires give both)
