Virago Tyre choice

[jimmy]

Any recommendations, need a set of tyres for my boys 535. Looking at choices, Heidenbau seem to be getting pushed by some. Anyone used / heard of them

Not heard a single thing about Heidenbau.

They do tyres for the 650 Drag as well, but not the FJ1200, so wouldn't appear on my radar.

I personally love Avon tyres and swore by them on my Dragstar - 20,000 miles with many more to go, great grip in all weathers, reasonable price - Do everything you want, really.

These are their options for the Viggie 535:

I just replaced my front tyre on my viggie 750 with another Avon Venom and can't fault them.

had a new front tyre on mine - bridestone, works well with the varied scottish weather

Yes

I went for them on my old XVS125, I ride all year round, good in wet weather, good mileage too, 7k out of the rear before smidsy wrote the bike off for me

Also had a pair of Heidenaus on the Virago now for a couple of years, same agian, cant fault them

Bought them using PNEUS ONLINE, excellent delivery, got them fitted locally
