Yokohama Car Tire

I put a Yokohama 205 55 tire on my Valk last Oct, and the following week my wife an I took a trip to Or.

Towing a cargo trailer I have put about 9000 mi. on it and it shows no tread wear that I can measure.

It is a  little wobbly at low speeds, but on the freeway at high speeds it is great . In tight turns I think it handles better. I can drag the pegs  while turning in a tight circle at idle.

I live in  Prescott, AZ, and go up into the mountains every time I go out.

I would  definitely replace it with another auto tire. The tire cost $87, and mounting was $10 at the local auto tire shop.

The local mc shops could not mount it, and the auto shop had the equip to do it. 

I would like to hear from other riders that are doing this .
