Since there are several guys on here that are motorcycle savvy,I thought this would be a good place to get some info.After being motorcycle-less for 45 years,I recently bought a 6,000 mile 1980 Honda that still has the original front tire on it.It's a Dunlop 3.50 S 18 Gold seal F-11.Anyone here know how to convert that to the present day size system?

Thanks in advance!!!!!!!

Y-Guy Paul        I checked on your tire and I can get a Kenda 100-90-18

                 for $54 no tax and $8/9 shiping. Let me know.

                                                    Thx Bill

That sounds good Bill.Do you also have a tube?I think I'd better replace the tube also as it's 30 years old.Let me know about total price for tire,tube and shipping and I'll send you a check.PM me your address and I'll do the same.

Thanks

FRONT TIRE ON A MOTORCYCLE IS NO PLACE TO CHEAP OUT !! THINK SAFETY , PLEASE !

I am a Metzler fan myself !

I understand your concern, Mike on not going "cheap" on that tire.I should have said inexpensive.I've never heard of Kenda tires until now,but after searching around and getting some info about them,I've not found anything negative.
