Steve I just buy tires from Motorcycle Superstore and then have them shipped to a preferred provider.  Leslie is over by my house.  He calls when he receives the tire and you can set a time to have it done while you wait.  Pretty easy.

As far as tires I'm currently running the Michelin Pilot Activ on my EV with no complaints.

Night Dragon is a cruiser tire.

Sport Demon is a sporty tire.

Maybe a bit of an over-simplification.

The Night Dragons are, by report, about akin to say a Metzeler ME 880/888, so a more touring/mileage-based tire than the Demons, but should still offer a nice level of grip.
