Title: Pirelli MT13 Mototrial
Post by: Keith Meatyard on September 02, 2013, 08:56:43 AM
I am looking for a 4.00-18 Pirelli MT13 trials tire for a Montesa Cota 348 survivor that I aquired.  The bike is all original except the rear tire had been changed to a knobby.  I think the MT13 was original, as that is what is old and still on the front.  I don't believe they are available anymore.

Thanks for any ideas,

Keith Meatyard

Keith,

If you don't locate the Pirelli, check out the Shinko SR241.  Decent tire, very similar look and inexpensive.

Keith,

Check the Dennis Kirk Catalog for a Pirelli trials tire replacement for the MT13 or just google Pirelli tire.

Your Parts Unlimited Dealer can get the Pirelli MT43 which is the direct replacement for the MT13. A bias ply trials tire.

I checked today and this is correct. I was filling in for a buddy at his shop and checked the parts catalog. That shinko is a good looking tire too.

Thanks for the tips guys.  All are possibilities.  I will be going to Barbers in a couple of weeks and will see what I can find there.  If anyone has a set of the MT13's and is going to Barbers let me know.

Thanks,

Still looking for a front 2.75-21 front MT13 Mototrial trials tire.  I bought an NOS rear and what was supposed to be a "slightly used" front thru someone responding to my request at Mark's, but the front turned out to be junk, full of sidewall cracking.  If anybody has one they'd like to part with please contact me.  I'd much rather deal with POG members.
