I am needing to replace the front tire of the 87. It was dry rotted horribly bad. I know the factory tire is discontinued but what tire is closest to it?

Ask Aldochina, looks like he just found some originals stock possibly.

the dunlop 576 is actually pretty difficult to find. I think i found a couple but it did take some leg work.

Good to know. Im working on another R so maybe i'll stop there and see if they have anymore.

Good price what size is that. I am going to be running a Dunlop KT151 on my 84 if I ever get it put back together:
