Metzeler Tourance NEXT tryes

[HogHog]

I've seen that Metzeler Tourance NEXT tyres are available from January 2013.

I can't seem to find a retailer/distributor that sells the ones to fit an F650GS.

Sizes required:

140/80 R 17 M/C 69V
110/80 R 19 M/C 59V

Can anyone help..??

Not a huge help to you being up there, but cW in Dorchester just fitted some on my F800GS

Thanks for the reply. When I look online I can't find the correct sizes available.

Yes Tosser Saw I have done 800 miles on my
New Next tyres and I have to say there noticeably
Better than my old fav,s old style tourances
As you saw today I was enjoying them!

Maybe a little less on mud or gravel but
defo better on road grip and super in wet!
Just have to remain confident but not get Cocky
Lol

I have been pleased with Continental trail attack tires.

Looks a little TOO road biased for me. Why not go the whole hog and turn your F800 into a super moto ? Then you'll have the best wet and dry weather roadholding you can get. But you won't look like an 'Advechur bike rider' of course

Mine Tourance EXP has now clock 10,000 miles and is still a few thousands to go. I'm a 95/5 user. With three boxes attach for my daily commuting to work. The wet handling is super. If it like the Motorrad test from the German's Magazine had said that the New Tourance NEXT is much more longevity then the EXP. I will definitely go the "NEXT"!!
