Looking at a brochure on the new Kawasaki Vulcan 1700's, I noticed something about the tires that might prove to be beneficial to us ACE Tourer owners.
The new Vulcan 1700 comes in four versions; Classic, LT, Nomad, and Voyager. Due to size, price, and features, these should be fairly good sellers for
Kawasaki. All four have a rear tire the same size as our T's OEM rear tire (170/70R 16). With four versions of another popular motorcycle on the market,
maybe tire manufacturers will add that size to their line-ups and we will have more choices for an OEM rear tire other than just the Dunlop D206 and the
Bridgestone G722. (Isn't it impressive the crap that I think of when I'm bored?)
