i have been looking for tires for the stock 11 inch front rim on my 86 R.
I have found a stock replacement, and the Kenda K284 Front-Max.
Are there any others out there for an 11 inch rim? What do you guys use?

im using the Kenda front max on my 350X, works great.
The front max is what I use also. (23") I don't remember a lot of choices in the
11" size. I have a spare Cheng Shin tire in a 23.5", but man does that thing look soooo much bigger than the 23" kenda.. I'm not sure, but I prefer the Front-Max as IT seems to be one of the best choices of any that are available.

i think alot of us use the kenda front max because its pretty much the only decent front tire out there. well atleast when i was loooking for new tires its all i could find.
i have this on my 86R and love it looks like stock, Dunlop makes it.
The Kenda Bear Claw is available in a 23-8-11. Or maybe the ITP Mudlite, it also comes in 23-8-11. check SMIMotosports.com

The front max is a great tire, not the best for braking, but a great tire. And not to expensive either!
