New Paso....Needs a back tire.

Hey....I just bought a 1987 Paso. It has a Michelin tire on the rear in the stock size. It only has about 500 miles on the tire but unfortunately it has cracks all around the sidewall. I knew from some research beforehand that the stock tire sizes are almost impossible to find. Today, searching on the 'net, I found this link and called them. I ended up ordering the tire and I pray that it works........If I am wrong about this tire, someone tell me quickly. If I am not, the dude said they have quite a few of them and you can all go order one.

you searched the net but it seems not this forum. Just look at the threads below yours.
I wonder if that is a typo on that site as on the Maxxis website there`s no listing of a 16" 160/60.

But who knows. It would be fantastic if besides the GoldenTyre there would be another new option.
Let us know.

Maybe it's old stock?? I guess I'll just cross my fingers and see what arrives in 3 or 4 days.

can`t be old stock as there`s never been anything else in that size than the Michelin M59X and earlier the Pirelli MP7s.

Dammit.....You are right. Dude just called me back and said it was an error in the listing. It's actually a 17 inch tire.
I told him about the new tire from Golden Tyre and he said that they would look into getting some. (He said they are an authorized Ducati dealer and a fairly large business so maybe they can get some tires from Golden Tyre and stock them??)

It does say its a 17" tire in the product description
. You could always get your rims magnified.

They have since changed the description. It originally said 16".
