    First, I want to thank Red & Jr. I did see they have a couple at JP, but, If they have quit making this tire, makes me wonder how old the tires are at JP... I have emailed Avon & asked what they recommend for the Trike now & also how long they have been discontinued. That Cobra Trike tire is a great tire hate they have quit it. Maybe I will have some answers tomorrow. They are in England so time zones lololol I have 20,000 on this tire now .Still looks good but I would like another.

    Remember Red from last years Hill Country. As for Jr.........who can forget him.loolo Yer my buddy !! Say hello to Darlene. Cya again in Oct. We are in Florida for 6-8 weeks & going to the Snowbird gathering in 2 weeks at Ormond Beach.

    When I hear from Avon, will post their reply for all

    Hi,

    Thank you for the below email.

    We produce a MT90B16 Cobra Chrome Trike tyre. Our Cobra Chrome range has replaced the Cobra range.

    Many thanks,

    Avon Motorcycle Technical
    As yet I have not seen a 16. On their site it only shows an 18. They did not tell me how long ago it was discontinued...Thanks Lee for your response, but is about $35 over JP. They are $128 & free ship. I will continue trying to find the new in a 16"

    Was it a 16" ?? I am now going to wait a bit For the NEW & IMPROVED tire. No sense buying a discontinued tire when the new are a bit wider footprint, better wet handling & stopping ..Several now have the 18" & talked to another dealer that can get a 16 within several days.

    Unfortunately it looks like even the new Chrome trike tire will only be offered in the basic Goldwing tire size. I've gotta say, I'm not too terribly surprised that they stopped offering their trike tire in the 16" HD tire size. The large majority of their tire sales in the trike industry are to the Goldwing base by a good margin.

    You must not read everything. Post above yours states, they gave me a # for the 16" & a dealer already confirmed he can have it in 3-5 days........

    I did see your post in regards to them being able to get one, that is why I took the time to comment & post a reply.

    I would verify that they are ordering the TRIKE version. There is an Avon Chrome product line for 2 wheelers that are available in multiple sizes also.

    This was a common point of confusion when the AV71 Trike tire was released also because they had a standard AV71 series tire & then the Trike version which were completely different tires.

    According to Avon Tyres & my contact within Avon they are not producing a 16" trike tire in the Chrome product line.

    Gotta concede on this one & say you were absolutely right. Been watching the post for a bit & ended up reaching out to Sukoshi @ Avon this time around to "make sure". She confirmed that they absolutely do make the new Chrome trike tire for the 16" hd front wheel & said their website was wrong and they'd get it fixed asap.

    I don't recall the specs for the old HD trike tire, but it kinda surprises me at how much deeper the tread is on the HD version in comparison to the 18" size offered for other trikes.

    You might contact Kevin at DK ... I'm fairly sure he said, he just recently put a Avon trike tire on his 14 before he traded it. Not sure where he got it or off it was the new one.

    The older style tire was also very deep.More so than the Dunlop.

    I think my comment about tread depth was misunderstood (even more likely, I phrased it completely wrong). I was referring to the tread depth between the two Chrome trike tires offered (18" for Goldwing based bikes & 16" HD version).

    I have not even seen the depth for the new style, just remembered the old was much deeper than a Dunflop. I like the old Avon I have on there & will not hesitate to get the new one when needed.

    Hey Jr., I have found a supplier for the 16" Avon. They are starting to show up. Avon had the 18" out first . https://www.americanmototire.com/ has some decent prices. So does Dennis Kirk . We are in Florida last 6 weeks & won't be going home for 2 more weeks. When we get back I will get serious about getting one after I measure the tire on there. Hope you & Darlene are doing well & we will be back to TX in Oct. Someone has to keep you in line. lololol

    Unfortunately I can't find the specs for the AV71 Trike anymore Have attached the spec info on the new Chrome series in 16 & 18 though.

    I believe the specs are very similar to the AV7 if I remember correctly...
