D- XM Storms they are great tires. They handle well in all conditions & can easily be run to the very edge. In the past 1. 53,0. I’ve tried them all. None last or handle as well as the XM’s. I average around 7,2. I could never do better than 5,0. Trust me I tried them all. These tires will never last what there warrantied for. But here lies the problem with these tires, they have a great warranty but virtually unusable. If you mount your on tires as I do it’s useless. So I paid to have a set mounted so I could try out the warranty (1st mistake). I pay to have another set installed (second mistake). Then comes the paper work & many hoops to jump through. End result, I paid to have 2 sets of tires mounted & can’t even use the warranty. Reason, I buy tires in advance in multiple sets. My receipt shows when & where I bought them but doesn’t have a amount on it. Warranty is based on price paid, so that leaves me out. Lesson learned, cost me $2. I could have done myself but did for the warranty. They are great tires but don’t buy them for the warranty. Which was very ironic. Well my rear tire had about 1. I heard something that sounded like a shot gun blast. Looked down and saw my rear tire was running flat. The bike handled great and I was able to pull off to the shoulder going 7. Looking at the tire I realized I had a blow out. The tire held togther and allowed me to get off the road safety and sound. Thank you avon for building such a good tire. It kept me very much alive. I just called Cycle. Max in Wilson, NC yesterday to order a new set of Avon Cobras for my 2. Honda Goldwing, then I decided to check your website for any updates! Then, as I looked further, FINALLY the Road Hazard on the Cobras! THANK YOU and please please keep up the good work.
After 1. 2+K miles, I put on another set that now has 5. K miles and looks like new. All I can say is that Avon has done it again. I have been running Avon tires since 1. I noticed that my average fuel mpg. I now have over 1. Talk about the best of both worlds. I ran my bike to the edge of the tires this past weekend and not a single complaint from the tires. I have talked a few friends into buying Avon tires over the years and every single one who did has stayed with them. Thank you Avon for producing a tire that can handle the power of today’s big sport bikes and deliver the performance needed to enjoy such bikes. Matt Koska, CT wrote on: 0. Suzuki GSX1. 10. 0G I picked the Storm 2 Ultra because of all the great things I’ve heard and read about them. And they are truly great tires. I’ve had them on for one season, and I think they will last one more. I ride roughly 1. Excellent grip in all weather, great on wet pavement, confidence inspiring cornering and wonderful wear characteristics are the main factors why I will be buying AVON tyres again in the future.

Sunday, I rode home from work in heavy rain. The bike was ridden at the usual pace after only a mile or so because the front was still glued to the road even with 2+ inches of water flowing. The front tire even helped with rear traction as it dispersed water ahead of the rear. Usually, I have to drop 1. Thanks for the awesome performance. Mike Snyder, PA wrote on: 0. Honda ST 1. 10. 0 I have just put my fourth set of Avons on my ST1. I first had the Azarros,then the Storms. I think they are a great tire,both for tire life and handling.

I’ve got two dealerships here stocking them since I have convinced so many people in eastern NC to use them! This past weekend the standard Road Hazard helped me out so much!

South from St Louis, MO to Nashville, TN in a bad rain storm, a guy in Kentucky called it a “Frog Strangler”. I had new Avon ST tires and the traction was so good, I could hardly believe it. The tires that came on the bike that I had replaced, were made by a major mfg. That trip started my “love affair” with Avon tires. I now have the ST Ultra 2, love them, they are even better!

Hayabusa After some of my racer friends were done laughing at me for putting the Storm 2 ultra’s on my Hayabusa, they were ordering their own sets. They grip, even in the wet and wear better than the tires they were using. Dual compound and a reasonable price, they were sold. I have been an Avon fan for years, now they know why.

From the first set I put on, I was sold. Instead of fighting through corners, just a little push on the bars and you’re through. I recently bought a 1. BMW K1. 20. 0LT, came with Metzeler tires. They felt good and the bike handled great, as I’ve heard they do. But I just put on the Storm 2 Ultra tires, and WOW! When cornering, it seems as if you just think about the corner, and you’re through it. Even seems more sure footed in parking lots. Thanks for the great products. Eric Burcham, TX wrote on: 0.

I would like to update you on the 1st set of Avon Ultra II Storms that I ever purchased. I rode thru Snow, Rain, and the tires never let me down. Keep up the good work. Also, I converted one of my riding buddies from Michelin tires to Avon Storms ( Honda VFR) he also loves them. Metzeler & Michelin just loss big time. Mick Hoey, Denmark wrote on: 0. Honda 1. 99. 6 VFR7. I have been extremely pleased with the performance of the Avon Storm 2 Ultra tyres. Never seen such a long lasting tyre before and still with an amazing grip. They have and are still doing an amazing job for me during my journey. I look forward to see how many kilometers I can get out of my newly fitted Avon ST 2 Ultra in Cape Town. I bet I can get it to last more than 2. South America. It did very good duty carrying a lot of weight with Urs and I. You folks have gotten the right mixture with this tire for sports touring. We rode in rain, sun, and wind. It held up well even with the nasty road surfaces in northern Oregon. We were carrying 4. It has squared off just a little bit but looks good to go for many miles. We did about 4,0. David Cyna, ONT wrote on: 0. Suzuki B- King I put on the Storms about two weeks ago. They seem to warm up quickly, hold well in the corners, are very predictable and don’t chatter around corners like some of my other tires did. They also seem very good in the rain. I had no problem accelerating to pass other vehicles in the rain at all, they held the road very well. So far, pretty impressed! I will definately be recommending them to my customers at the SUZUKI OF NEWMARKET bike dealership I work at! Brian Rathjen, NJ wrote on: 0.
