hahaha, some guys do not take the 2 mile kiddy trails to work either!

Are the 606's normally that glazed looking when ran for awhile?

roflmao.....take it easy on deej, we all have our own definition of pushin it

I just replaced a rear 606 off my ktm 640 no glaze at all....actually it was rough lookin with chunks missing here and there, on that almost bald bastard...only got just over 2.3k miles out of her. But I do gun it alot off-road.

Running the Terraflex BooB now ..... that sucker grabs some sugar sand.

I have run 100/100-18s, 120/90-18s and also the 110/100-18 and if I was to pick ...I'd say the 110/100-18 seems to be the best fit for the bike. All were TK760s too...it's the choice for me for the price. The Dunlops are just sooooo damn expensive I wouldn't want to fork out the money and not be happy.

Yup, I agree .... the 120 is too big for our lil klx

My favorite is the 110 trackmaster II ...... got a brand new one on her today .... ahhh I just luv those lil rubber stringy things that stick out

I think I will rip them off with some sugar sand now...before I got to fire up the smoker and I still got light...might need a jacket thou...its supposed to get down to 71 tonight.

Got the bad boys on today. Didn't get started until 2 and still had enough daylight to go start scuffing them in. Put the D606 tires on 12/20 of 2008 and today is 12/31 of 2009. Mileage on the D606 was 6351... and they were quite obviously hammered. Definately will curtail the majority of my street riding to save these as long as I can. They felt very un-nerving after riding on those bald 606s for so long.

The NF is finally open, so I think we're gonna go up north to the singletrack where the mud won't be as bad (hopefully) and I'll give them a test run.
