Chris,

Thanks for initiating the contact! I am also in need of a set of tires, so you can add my quantity to any reply that you send. FYI - the catalog info from Goldentyre in Italy is as follows: Front GT 070 - Catalog Code GOP3494, Rear GT071 - Catalog Code GOP3495.

Hope that's useful!

Hello all, I'm new to this forum and am in the same situation, I need (1)front/(1)rear tire. Just picked up an "88" Limited that I would love to get back on the road again this summer, please keep me in the loop for new skins. If anyone is near Rhode Island and would like to go in on shipping, let me know. Thanks, Bill B.

They are saying the GT 070/071 are for high powered scooters.

Only down side is the price: at the current exchange rate €300 = $400(approx). Ouch! Don't know what shipping will be either.

Oh well, Yahoo!!

Yahoo Bernanke!!

So long as the treasonous creature prints the money of future generations ad infinitum, the USD will be worthless.

So, what's the scoop?

Looks like they didn't even make it to Italy yet.

OK guys. I'm waiting for a reply from Mike at GT Canada for prices and shipping costs.

jfiore: If there is a "quantity" discount for the number of tires we're likely to purchase as a group, 12 - 14+?, it might be contingent on them being shipped to one location. A Calif order might not be bundled with a Connecticut order.

If GT Canada will ship a single order to more than one location, we might be able to increase our group order to get a real quantity discount and still get them delivered to different cities. We'll have to wait till I get word from Mike at GT Canada. :)

That's OK: they're Z rated.

Dont' worry we know that they put in the Scooter line, because of the 16',
but Goldentyre want to produce this tires first of all x Old Ducati :thumbup:
and not x scooters :lol:

I hope to try my Paso with the new tires next month

Hi ValPaso75,
Was just on the Italian Goldentyre web side. GT070 (front) GT071 rear) seem to be available on the web shop. My italian is not as good, bit I believe you can order them in Italy. Don't let us wait. We're eager to know how they work!!!!!!
