I have the www's 880 sitting here waiting to be put on in the spring ,as well.MA-Deuce has the Dunlop's on right now ,but they are all black.I run the 880 on my bobber and that has a nice  smooth balanced ride....no shimmy or shake.This is part of the reason i chose the www 880's for the Drifter.RATMAN,let me tell ya,they come looking smurf blue so allow time to work on getting them white....I stopped by the local Kawi shop and they want $77 dollars each to balnce and install.....WOW!!!!....Think the guy was on some of your meds :o when i get a chance going to try the new Honda shop for a price....

I've had both on my bike, back to back.  I had the Conti's on first and they were good tires that seemed to last forever.  They're a little harder compound then the 880's, so they aren't as sticky as the 880's, but they're a lot tougher (last longer).  The Conti's also have a little more material in the sidewalls, so they handle a load better, but since you don't ride 2up that's not an issue for you.

   After being at the bike show and seeing the tires and such I decided to look at mine, they looked ok the other day but I was now wondering how old they are.
If I am correct they were made in 06. So I found only 2 places in Canada that ship for free and to my house. Shipping from the US is way out to lunch.
Must be WWW tires, and so I have a set from Metzler ME 880 and then from Continental CM2 Conti Milestone. Price is about $10.00 difference between them. Later today or in the week I'll go to the Kaw shop see what they can get me and then the only other shop is a Honda shop check there too, and then see what mounting them is going to run....perhaps leave me waiting for my engine guard.
Anyone got anything bad about either tire or know a better tire? Thanks
