Ref my reply to Kentish Man, Avon AM26 3.25" or 90/90 x 19" front, AM26 100/90 x 19" rear. Heidenau 3.25" x 19" and 3.50" x 19" as well as Dunlop TT100-3.60x19 front and 4.10x19 rear have also been recommended by forum members, I'm sure there are other satisfactory options which will be suggested.

Apologies to Malc1091, My message was ment to be a reply, and there are two of them, could an administrator remove one of them please?
My thanks to Adrian, I did not know Avon TT100's were still available, I had a set on my 1973 Triumph TR6R, same sizes as quoted, 3.60 front and 4.10 rear, that rear was a wide tyre in its day. so does any know if the TT100 is compatable with the roadrunner AM20 I have up front?

I have Dunlop Goldseal K70 tyres on my Electra X 3.25-19 on the front and 3.50-19 on the rear. The tread pattern looks more suited to the Enfields vintage looks than the Avon road riders it came with, and I have found them to be good in the wet and the dry.
