the rain finally stopped so as requested here are a few pics of the Barrauda tires in the following sizes: F/100-90/16 R: 130-80/16 no issues mounting them, the front fender did not have to be raised nor did i have to modify (via the sledge hammer technique) the rear shock mount. they are a perfect fit.

Nice!

Thanks for posting!

How do you like them?

What is the mounted width?

I am away form home till tomorrow night, I will measure the Avon Vyper Stryke for comparison and post.

Did you install them yourself?

A mounting tip is: the "Dot" on the tire in the second picture is supposed to be aligned with the valve stem. The dot is the light spot on the tire and the valve stem is the heavy spot on the wheel(Usually) So when you put the two together you don't need as much weight to balance the tire.

So how are the tires (Barracudas) preforming for you. What is the best place in the States to order from and ship to Canada. Anybody? Thanks.

Chapparell, JP Cycles. OOORRRR.......Any local bike parts retailer should be able to order them through Parts Unlimited or Rockey Tucker.
