Talking to Metzeler because I didn't see the 1200 Voyager listed in their fitment guide.
I sent them the sizes we use.
They replied saying they no longer make a tire for our bike.
No more tires from Metzeler

Re: No more tires from Metzeler
I just purchased a Metzeler Marathon rear tire to replace a worn marathon.The tire has a warp to it ,causing a wobble especially at low speed.I'm waiting to hear back from my mechanic who took video to try to get a replacement.Is Metzeler a mistake?

Re: No more tires from Metzeler
I used them years ago, no problems. You just have a defective tire. Can happen to any brand

Re: No more tires from Metzeler
I just bought a front 888 and a 880 for the rear. It was my understanding that they were trying to sell out the stock of the 880 for the rear before the starting making the 888 for the rear. I have been using the 880 front and rear for 9 years and have had no issue with Metzlers. Now the only other brand that I have used was Continental brand both front an rear and had a bad experience with both of them. I really like the Metzlers hope they continue to make them. Will just have to wait and see
