[QUOTE="Grumpy, post: 643371, member: 105"] There are other threads on this tire if you want to look for them. I ran an ME 880 rear up to Nova Scotia and back a few years ago and the tire was very good for that purpose. I traveled with 4 other people who were on cruisers of varying makes as an indicator of the quickness of the trip. When that tire went away....around 9,000 miles as I recall, I put another one on the rear. Well, I removed it before it was 1/2 worn out due to several experiences I had with it coming unhooked in cold and rainy conditions. While I never went down, I could have and the extended mileage just isn't worth this to me. Since this tire, the Michelin Pilot Road II's and a new tire from Pirelli have appeared and appear to give good mileage and better traction than the ME 880. My 2 cents worth......actually, you got closer to a dollars worth. jim [/QUOTE]
