Rear tire upgrade ? Klx250SF
#21
Hey ahnh666 I think i may have to agree with you, the 110 /140 combo may still be the best the SF!
I'm not totally convinced by these arguments guys, I need a little more detail about the handling characteristics to go out & purchase a 120 front tire.
With the lack of power on the street for a SuperMoto, the handling is very important to me!
Hows the bike feel at 90+mph? Any wobbles/slapping?
Does the bike still throw quick & predictably into mid/fast corners?
etc etc
Thanks

Thx for the replies re:120 Pirelli diablo rosso front tire.
I'll give it a go!! I recon if the steering is to slow I can raise the forks in the trees by an inch to lower the front end, which will change the geometry of the bike & speed the steering up if necessary!
If that isn't satisfactory "handling wise" before or after playing with the forks, my tire shop says ....if i do less than 20kms on the tire he will take the tire back less a 15% charge & re-sell it. win win!!
