Yea, mine sleeps outside, in winter I put on wood blocks but NY is pretty brutal.  To think of it though, my car sleeps outside too and those tires are not cracked.

I usually find decent deals on Dunlops at American Motorcycle Tire on-line. The K555 comes in stock size for the Savage, and I think it's the D series (maybe 404?) that works for the front. Interestingly you will find that the Savage rear 140/80-15 is the same identical size as the Honda Pacific Coast 800. That might expand your search options.

Put a 140/90/15 Duro on mine early last summer. Is wearing well and has pleanty of grip. Got mine through a local shop and had it balanced and put  on plus tire cost and new tube with 90 deg stem for about $85. Ill be putting a duro on the front soon. I ride all year long.

Routy, the 140/90 will make the speedo quit lieing. With a 90 if it says your doing 70 your doing 70, not 65...lol

there is a motorcycle dealer in Vancouver Washington called Pro Caliber that sells the best price motorcycle tires you can find. If I remember, every one else wanted like $120 or more for a Dunlop 404 rear tire and balancing. Pro Caliber sold me mine for $65. They ship also. Check out their website for prices.
