Author Message   Jetranger_2000 Posted on Tuesday, February 14, 2012 - 11:19 am:        anyone know when these will be available to buy. Conti Website says they make them but I cant seem to find them   Froggy Posted on Tuesday, February 14, 2012 - 11:27 am:        Motorcyclesuperstore.com said soon when I last inquired.   Froggy Posted on Tuesday, February 14, 2012 - 01:26 pm:        http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com/2/29/393/1486 0/ITEM/Continental-TKC-80-Twinduro-Dual-Sport-Rear -Tire.aspx?WT.ac=SLIsearch There is an email notification feature, I recommend you pick the 180/55 and sign up to get an email whenever they get it in stock.   Eulysses Posted on Tuesday, February 14, 2012 - 04:42 pm:        I wonder if one would fit the front wheel ok and another the rear? I don't have my tire size with me...big water between me and the mainland right now!   Froggy Posted on Tuesday, February 14, 2012 - 04:55 pm:        They will have a 120/70 available soon for the front too, it is just a matter of it clearing the fork tubes and fender.   Sperz1 Posted on Tuesday, February 14, 2012 - 09:33 pm:        I'll be picking up a set as soon as they are available.   Zac4mac Posted on Tuesday, February 14, 2012 - 10:36 pm:        Y'all suss them out for me. I have a set of "lightly used" take-off Pirellis for when I need tires. Soon actually. The Uly feels like it's on knobbies already. Might as well give it a reason. Zack   Eulysses Posted on Wednesday, February 15, 2012 - 04:05 pm:        Cool. I will buy a set when the 120/70 comes out. Looks like a little longer life could be had as the blocks are pretty big. Might even blow some sand out the side of the front tire.   Xaman Posted on Wednesday, February 15, 2012 - 09:43 pm:        I'm very interested in the Conti's too. Does anyone have any idea how they should handle high speed? I get in a hurry sometimes...   Lornce Posted on Sunday, February 19, 2012 - 06:02 pm:        Xaman, No idea on the 120/70-17 size but in 21" front and 17" rear sizes they work remarkably well on twisty pavement for a half-way decent knobbie tire. Very soft rubber compound and decent sidewall stiffness sticks and steers in spite of the tread pattern. You pay for it in mileage, however. They don't last very long with any amount of aggressive riding.   Ghostrider Posted on Monday, February 20, 2012 - 09:16 pm:        I checked with a local vendor and he said he could get them as of Feb 14th. Since it's now Feb 20th, I'll call back and see if he can really get them. I'm going to need them for Alaska this summer, so...   Rwven Posted on Tuesday, February 21, 2012 - 08:34 am:        My good friend Francois at Dual Sport Touring in Friendsville TN tells me he can get them.   Sedmek Posted on Sunday, March 04, 2012 - 11:35 pm:        I have ordered a set and Blackfoot Motosports says they should arrive by Mar 24th.   Jetranger_2000 Posted on Monday, March 05, 2012 - 01:36 pm:        price??
