Got my Kenda's put on today. Love these tires, not afraid to really lay this beast into the corners now. Just got to get that 351 on order and then it is track time bishes !!

 

Don't forget to go easy for the first 100 miles with new rubber. Then giv'er!!

 

Yea that looks nice.. a dirt capable bike with supermoto like look.. bet those are smooth.. any headshake at all>?

 

I have a second set of wheels coming via UPS as I type. I have been looking at these very tires to put on that second set that will be my new "road wheels"
Make sure to do an update after you get a few miles on them.
Thanks,
Dan

 

Are they good at all in the dirt? Don't look like they would be. Or do you just switch back and forth for that kind of thing?

 

Smmmoooootttthhhh as butter. No headshake or vibration. I'm running them at recommended pressure according to the side wall 33 front 32 rear and they are a little stiffer feeling than the 605's that came off.

The work fine so far on dirt roads (really the only offroading i do) but i wouldn't try and get to far off road with them. I'm going through a motard thing right now, hopefully get another full set of rims (probably full tard 17's) so i can mount proper dirt tyres if the urge comes along.

I'll update once i get some miles on these but so far they are awesome.

 

What sizes are you running?

 

90/90-21 and 120/80-18. You might be able to cram a 130 on the back but the 120 on that rim makes a PERFECT tire profile when mounted.

 

damn those look surpisingly good!!

 

I had that tire on the rear of my KLR... It was great at first then when the cent wears down to just a smooth rubber surface it gets scary.



even did halfway decent in the dirt


Just a warning when it gets below half way worn it gets scary on the road, i hit a couple wet spots around a bend and the back end came around on me. I took it off before it was completely worn out. Its good the first couple thousand... but after that be careful.
