just bought a metzler ME 880 for my 02 Honda VTX 1800 been told it is a pretty good tire just looking for some feed back pros and cons

Eeek! You should have done a search on these forums before you bought the Metzler. Try Metzler 880 or chunking problem for search terms.

The metzler provides great mileage. Go to their website to determine the correct pressure for your application. Some of us did have problems with our ME880s about a year ago. Mine started splitting in the rain grooves and since I had 10k on the tire the rep let me have 1/2 off on a replacement tire. I am now running Dunlop E3 tires.

I only got about 6,500 miles on the ME880, switched to E3's got great milliage, great handleing , really nice in the rain. but having trouble finding them for the front replacement this year. may try avon venoms

Got 5600 miles out of the stock Bridgestone. Replace that with a Metzeler ME880 180/70-16. Got only 3600 miles out of that, and was very disappointed. Just switched to a Dunlop E3, and my first note is that it rides much smoother than the Metzeler. Only time will tell how it does mileage wise, but I'm very pleased so far.
