Yoy want to run narrow blocky pattern tyres on a 700lb powerful bike ??

Bridgestone Exedra G721 is a white wall modern tyre I run on the front, if it is the old-style look you want - with modern grip and tread pattern. I no longer bother with a white-wall rear , as it is too hard to clean, and no-one has commented yet as it not very visible .

Im having a crisis determining which tires to use on my new to me 1500. Im set on using a vintage style tire as I wont be doing any touring or long distance riding on the bike. I have Avons on a Thruxton and understand the sketchy feel on grooved pavement, so.. basically yes I understand they dont perform like more modern tires. All that out of the way...

Anyone running vintage style tires? if so, what? Got any pics?

thanks
