Bridgestone Exedra G547, 110/80-18 M/C 58V T...

[ST1100Y]

OK, I'm searching the front tire since September last year over here... not a chance...
(the rear G548 160/70 - 17 TL 73 V is readily avail on good numbers...)

Got fed up and contacted Bridgestone.com directly now because the tire/model is still listed(!)

I have not seen many bikes that have 18in front wheels and there lies the problem. It's available in the US but all the the sites
I looked at had 1 available. I'll bet your reply will be it's replaced by the BT46. Just a guess.

I'll bet your reply will be it's replaced by the BT46. Just a guess.

Which they told us already in the late 90ies (BT45 back then...)
The core problem:
can't use a tire that only lasts 6,000km... no sense of even leaving the house with such... would need replacing rubbers 1/2 way on the tour...

That G547/548 combo again, easy doing 12,000km, so I can ride the tour (Norway, Scotland, whatever...) and then some...
