Just installed a new set of Bridgestone Spitfire S11 on the k75. They fit great and feel great on the road.
Checked the Haynes manual after I had finished the job just to make sure I had done everything right as this is
my first BMW bike and read several times that I should NOT install any tire other than BMW approved tires!
First off, where do I find this list? Second, is this just a snobery thing or are there tires that should not be mounted on these bikes?
I have taken the bike out for a 2 mile loop and all feels fine.
Thanks,
Chris
