Diceman Seiling,  OK good tire I have only rode about a thousand miles this month, not much rain but it is a good tire so far. I would buy again if the wet handling and mileage are as I have heard. I have been running Donlop's so far and only about 9,000 mi out of rear and twice that on front. If i can get 12,000 out of the rear it will be worth the extra $50.00.

Dave Friday Harbor,  WA VRSCF Wide tire The Metzeler 260 fit great as a replacement for the 240 tire on my 09 VROD Muscle with no mods - just a little bit of a tight squeeze. Looks awesome and handles great. Highly recommended.

Mike Kansas City,  MO Price vs Sticking to the road Other brands I have used will cost less but what could happen when on wet pavement will cost more than paying the extra for a Metzeler ME 880. The Motorcycle Super Store had the best price this summer that I found. I will shop again when needed.

Bill Halifax,  PA Metzler me880 Replaced the stock Dunlop at 9200 miles. The Metzler lasted 10,500. Probably would have lasted longer, but I took a trip out west and did alot of straight line riding.Worn in the center, but lots of rubber on the edges. Will buy again

Dave Tulsa,  OK Metzler ME 880 Marathon XXL Rear Tire This is my second of these tires from Motorcycle Superstore and I couldn't be more satisfied. The price was over $100 less than the dealership was going to charge and it only took a few days to get here. I had almost 10K miles on the last one and dry or wet I was very pleased with its performance. In another 10,000 miles I'll be coming back for another one.

Rich Conroe,  TX Metzeler ME 880 XXL 200/70B15 I put this tire on a '04 Suzuki Volusia, and so far it's a very good handling tire. Rolls in and out of curves and corners smoothly. Just went through 20 miles of rain with no problems. With only about 800 miles on the tire, I really can't comment on the tread life. Pretty thick tire though. If I can get some good mileage out of it, I'll most likely buy the same again.

Scottchman Tempe,  AZ Rear tire on Suzuki M109R I consistently get about 12,000 out of my rear tire using the ME880. I just mounted my third set and I won't run any other tire or have not found one that will perform as well. This tire has excellent dry or wet traction and looks awesome in the 260 to 280 size.
