If there's a go-to tire for the skinny, vintage ribbed look on the front of a motorcycle, the Speedmaster from Avon has to be it.
The Avon Speedmaster is the default choice for so many riders because its design is timeless, it's crafted for use on the narrow, tall wheels that define vintage motorcycles, and the non-directional ribbed design works well with builds mimicking bikes from many eras. Why does it look just right? Because the tire's been around in various forms for a very, very long time.
Avon has meticulously updated rubber compounds over the years so the Avon remains relevant and provides performance riders need to stay safe. All too often, riders are forced into accepting substandard performance to achieve the right aesthetic appearance with vintage-pattern-tread skins. The Speedmaster removes that difficult choice.
The Speedy is a front-only tire. It's meant to be paired with the Safety Mileage, which has a similarly striking appearance. It's a tube-type tire, so if you're fitting this to a modern tubeless wheel, remember to purchase a tube and double-check load and speed rating recalculations due to that tube before running the tire.
