[@Thewatson77]

Man I love the quick parts chat style video mid week! Great little addition to the channel and that tire is serious 👌🏼

[@forthebold]

Thanks. Glad you do. It just gives me a chance to talk more on the products as they come in. 👍🏻.

[@abeaverdam]

Avon trail riders look great on my dad’s monster build! Great choice!!!

[@forthebold]

Thanks

[@charlesdeakins2546]

I have used these tyres, the road performance wet and dry is very good, you wont be disappointed with the grip,

[@forthebold]

Amazing to hear

[@ninoellison7793]

Fab choice. Friggin love the tread pattern...brilliant!

[@forthebold]

Glad you like it!

[@prajjwalvinodh968]

Thats a massive tire Damn the name GHOST is going to be amazing.

[@forthebold]

Thank you

[@damonbauder4854]

So keen to see the complete bike!

[@forthebold]

Me too

[@curlybill3966]

They are great! Performance & durability.

[@forthebold]

Sure are.

[@jhantushankar]

I believe in your choice, I m sure they will turn out to be good looking.

[@forthebold]

Thanks. Along with the hubs, rims and TFX shocks it’ll look nice

[@briana.influentialworks5533]

I got a pair of Avon’s part off road for my gs500... they are sick

[@forthebold]

And they look awesome.

[@ponyboy7116]

I am a big fan of the more aggressive tires and I believe it is the ideal choice for the Ghost. But that is only one man’s opinion.

[@forthebold]

Thanks for your opinion. Every opinion is welcomed, even those that disagree.

[@geoffreyjones2000]

I love new rubber, sir

[@forthebold]

Me too

[@christopherastbury6644]

Loved the flash effect of your stripped shirt

[@lowsideluke]

Got these on my Ducati Scrambler. Not too bad. 👍

[@forthebold]

And they look amazing. What engine scrambler? I've had an 1100 to play with last year.

[@lowsideluke]

@@forthebold 803. Absolutely love it.

[@adambenwallace]

Hi - huge fan of your videos - keep them coming! Oddball question here but in the UK, do you have difficulty getting these heavily modified bikes insured? Who do you use?

[@forthebold]

No trouble insuring usually as with the other bikes I'm not changing too much, I'll have to see with this Ducati as I'm swapping out a lot with the body. Are you UK based?

[@adambenwallace]

@@forthebold Yeah - I like to declare everything and that prevents most from quoting. Using CaroleNash at the moment.

[@luddite6239]

If you have trouble getting a heavily modified or shed-built bike insured, you could try RH Specialist Insurance. They appear every month in Practical Sportsbikes magazine and claim to be able to cover any modified bike or special.

[@OldManTony]

Oh no another choice. I need new tyres on my Tiger, and I’d almost settled for Michelin Road 5 Trails, now maybe the Trail Riders. Decisions, decisions, decisions hahahahahah!

[@forthebold]

Highly recommended and seeing other reviews too. Well worth it.

[@Mattventuring]

I'm getting these for my Tiger 800 when the current tyres wear out 👌

[@luddite6239]

That's a good-looking tyre and should suit the style of your spoked wheels well. Aggressive but not so much so that it compromises road performance too much. (Hmm - a 52-48 vote? That's a real 'Brexit' tyre, isn't it?!) By the way, I've just received one of your Ducati engine tee-shirts - lovely quality, perfect fit and great design with a splash of orange like the Monster frame. Oh, and organic cotton and carbon neutral too - thoroughly recommended!

[@forthebold]

Ah amazing. Glad you like the tee. Thanks for the support.

[@nataliamiliano150]

How are these tires on slick/wet pavement?

[@forthebold]

They're a great all round tyre, handles the wet

[@js92css]

Anyone have these on some honda Comcast wheels? Anyone think this would be overkill for a minimal-miles, cb400 hawk ii?

[@forthebold]

It will work. I put 120s rear on my BMW R100 too

[@motorcyclegarage2307]

I want one

[@forthebold]

Or even 2 👍🏻

[@MrFilgri]
