New tires
Well after using the 606 several times, I have decided to try out a set of the Kenda K760-Trakmaster II Tires. Heading to Oregon in May and want a good tire for the terrain including a lot of sand.

After trying quite a few different DOT knobbies on the KLX, I've found the Kenda TMII to be my favorite rear tire. I wasn't that crazy about the front, but the rear beats even the most expensive, so-called-great tires I've used. My front fav is the Kenda Parker Desert. I didn't like the rear Parker, but the front is awesome.

Generally hard packed rocky...more rocky...packed rocky...loose rocky...and ledgy rocky. I've been impressed the TMII's lack of **** chunking on the rear. I ripped the front TMII ***** on the edges fairly easily. In fact I usually ripped the side ***** of most fronts until I found the Kenda Parker.

I like the Washougal Sticky 80-100-21 with the TMII 120-100-18. I did the Washougal Sticky rear for a while[2] and think the TMII last a bit better.
Picked up a deal on a Michelin Cross AC 10 80-100-21 won't do that again.
as it seems to push.
May at EFR......mmmm good

Maxxis desert it
Any thoughts on the Maxxis Desert IT? It's not DOT from what I can see, but no worries on that and the riding buds love this tire. Very long wearing, they say, compared to the TMII, which is what I have on now front and back. Current tires have a few rides left in them so new rubber is needed in a bit.
