TR305762: Front Cobra Radial Tire for GL1800
TR305770: Rear Cobra Radial Tire for GL1800
My baby’s first set of new shoes.

Bought as a set because my factory Dunlop’s were showing the ware bars (front and rear) before I made 10,000 miles. The Dunlop tire has better road grip but tends to cup if the pressure gets only 2psi below 40psi especially on the rear tire (not so with Cobra). Dunlop’s softer compound no doubt leads to the low mileage wear. I do like to lean hard from time to time and the Cobra seems to grip just fine until you bang the gears a bit hard, that’s when you notice the difference in tires. Knowing this now, I just enjoy the lean without hammering the gears. My hope is that the Cobra’s will give me many more miles than the factory Dunlop’s did. If my wish comes true the tradeoff will be well worth it.

I am on my second set of Cobra's. I have tried Dunlop's and Bridgestones. I will always choose Avon Cobra's for my Wing if i have that choice. They make me feel very confident on just about any road surface. I know everyone has his own opinion on things like this and thats mine. I will take the Cobras any day of the week.

I have not bought the cobra radials yet. I was reading the reviews first, it seems to be a good tire. I have almost 9,000 miles on the original set of dunlops that came with the bike. I bought the bike in March 2011 new, its a 2010 yellow Gold Wing.
I am a very big guy 6ft. 8" and 340 lbs. The tires I have are already worn out, the front tire cupped at around 6,000 miles and is getting worse the left side of the tire is bald and the right side still has some tread on it. The rear tire is still ok but I would like to replace them at the same time to get the same tread together. I ride everytday as much as I can. I would like to know more about how the cobra's handle and do they stick well. I love the bike and I would like to get more miles out of the tires, but I know i will have to quit spinning them as often as I do lol. Is this a good all around tire and will it last, with a bit of aggression put on them, lol. I do like to ride aggresively sometimes and the bike is really powerful, and I do abuse it a little. What is a good size to put on both front and rear for this kind of riding.

yes no

I bought the Cobras 2 years ago. I just installed a new set of Cobras after 12500 miles. I am very happy with the tires. The was no cupping on the front or rear tires as there was with the previous different brand tires. I purchased the 60 series tire instead of the 70s as per my last review. I'm happy about the ride height and the tire clearance when on the center stand. This is my second set and I'm pretty sure it won't be my last.

Purchased front and rear Avon Cobra Radials for my GL1800. I ride fairly aggressive. Placed over 5,500 miles on the tires and could not be more pleased with their performance thus far. An outstanding tire.
