Valkyrie Front Tire ?

[North of 49]

Black Dragon......I am assuming your Interstate has the same size original size tire as my Tourer had....150-80-R17. In the thread you will find I put on the closest size available, an MPA 150-70-17 (rear tire), and I really like it. Many times you make changes with insignificant results. This tire works great. If you still have a radial on the front, make the change.
Good to know there are other Valk trikes around. Feel free to ask questions.
And thanks for sending your wet weather this way...wet snow forecast for Manitoba tommorrow!

I put the Michelin Pilot on my Valkyrie I/S,,,love the way it handles,,very smooth also.
As others have said, speedometer is a little slow when it's showing 80 MPH actually only going 75 MPH. I can live with that....

This is a great thread re: Valk front tire selection as of 2011. Also, for whatever reason it does not show on searches unless "north of 49" is used in the advanced search option.My question is have there been any substantial advances in Valk front tire technology and / or fitment since this thread went inactive in 2011?I think that I recently read somewhere that one of the major tire manifacturers was soon going to release a trike specific front tire but I cannot find anything on it I acknowledge other more recent threads somewhat inclusive of this question, but nothing specific on recent advances. Also, it would be good if tags could be added to enable this thread to come up on an ordinary search.
