Rich,
I'm running the ME-880 Bias ply tires on my '96 R1100RT. I had to install a 17" rear wheel. I REALLY like the mileage and the handling is good in wet or dry.
The ride is a little harsher than the radials but the load rating is one of the reasons I switched. The last Michelin Mac 90 I tried was paper thin in less than 4,500 miles. Ive run the original Bridgestone BT56's and liked them a lot but they were discontinued at some time in the past and I started trying other brands.
None perform as well as the ME-880's for my riding. I can still drag the footpegs (feelers are long gone) with these tires.
120X70X17 and 160X70X17 38,42 psi.
