I purchased some Commander 2 tires from jp cycles. Was planning on having my local harley shop install them when when I had my 10k service done. They told me that they were not made for Harley's and would not install them. They said Avons were the only way to go. ( so I told them to just put Avons on) Are these guys just crazy and tried selling me a set of tires or are the commanders really not good tires?

+1. Hook, line, & sinker. Unscrupulous dealer...I wouldn't give them another dime!!

Just had Corning Harley Davidson put MC2s ' on my Slim.

They just wanted to sell you tires, total BS MC II's are great motorcycle tires , as are Avons .

 

[HDSickness]

WOW........Run from that place and never return!
Put Commander II on my 99 RK and now on my Ultra Limited and they are great tires.

 

[SLJ]

Sorry but you got hosed...

 

[rosconey]

your commanders are garbage- send them to me for testing on your dime:bike-038:

 

[lakeforktx]

Lot of places or dealers wont put tires on that you didn't buy from...but no need for the BS..

Unbelievable B/S that comes outa the mouths of some Harley Davidson stealership's is so absurd as to border on outright illegal activity and shoddy business practices ! MOCO should but won't take away their franchise because they them selves are guilty !
But , hey , if its not illegal .................

 

[Ultra Struck]

Got a set and love em. Yes they are made for Harleys.
My local dealer only wanted to use screaming eagle cams on an engine build and nothing else but that is because they dont have the skill to tune a bike with other brands of cams.

Your dealer is a flat out liar and crook or just plain stupid.

Your dealer wouldn't tell you the truth. They won't put them on because you bought them online. If you had asked them to order them they would have mounted them.

 

[rosconey]

most shops around here charge extra for mount balance on tires they didnt sell you- just the way it is now a days - im getting a manual tire machine myself this year-can balance with dyna beads

Just so you all know this wasn't a dealer. It's actually an independent Harley shop. These guys are really good and reasonably priced. I think they are just set in there ways. They like to put whatever they like and use on your bike. I thought the tire thing was a little weird but I'll keep using them because they are a lot better then my local dealer .

I think my Indy feels threatened by new technology , even tires , can't knock Avons , you could always sell the MCII's , don't think you would have much trouble finding a buyer.

Does Power Commander 2 come in a wide WW.
If not whats the next best tire that does. I don't want Dealer Dunlaps.

also take a look at the shinko 777 hd white wall
the hd(heavy duty) is new- higher load rating longer wearing

me and 2 of my friends have the previous 777 and they are a great tire at a very nice price-
