Conti TKC80s for R1150GS in Chile/Arg
Hi, I´m currently in Chile, heading up Carratera Austral. Its lovely here by the way if a tad expensive after Argentina.
I´m using Metz Karoos which have been ok on the gravel but develop a nice weave on tarmac at about 70mph. Are there places, say in Santiago or further north where i could get a TKC80 for a BMW R1150GS? Cheers Mike

Here in Central America, the Conti's are not available. The Pirelli MT21 is a good substitute and available everywhere in Latin America(made in Brazil). Not sure about your frt. whl. size though.
