Dammit, where were you a week ago? I just spent about $230 on D205s for my '99 Katana due to a punctured rear tire!

Yes, you can still find D205s, but you have to look. Ditto on D208s. A problem I've found with both the D208 and the Qualifier is they don't make 'em in a 150/70/17, which is the spec rear size on a Kat.

I don't know why they ever got away from the D205s personally - great tires. I think the D208 was supposed to be a little better in water or something, but it never rains here and I think I've only ridden in rain twice - and carefully. Normally I just drive or wait it out if it ever does rain. *sigh*
