I tried one on a KTM 640. My 640had Metzeler Karoo's on it and I was having a heck of a time int he sand. I sewapped bikes with a buddy with a 640 that had a Terraflex rear and it was a HUGE difference.The tire grabbed and pushed that 640 through some extremely deep sand like it was in hardpacked dirt. The ***** are enormous...and it sucks to follow someon with those mounted becasue you'll get every piece of gravle the bike rides over in your face.

On a side note, I was wanting to put a Terraflex rear on my KLX, but have read in a number of places that the tire itself is very heavy and needs a lot of power to turn. It is great on the bigger bikes, but I'm not sure how well the KLX would handle it.

150/90-18* size for hi-power - Big Bore Bikes only 110/90-19* & 110/100-18* sizes for strong running 250 & open class. Super deep *****, more bite and longer wear. “Cantilevered” rim guard sidewall engineered to provide increased deflection & bite. Extra thick ***** allow recutting of worn and rounded edges without losing **** stability. Maintains maximum bite for the life of the tire. Double edge taper, wide base, self-cleaning *****, will not clog even in gumbo mud. “Reversed Angle” leading edge of intermediate *****, directs side thrust towards the inside when the bike is leaning into a turn. “Racing” tread rubber compounded for extreme traction. Race tire construction, super-strong, light-weight racing nylon, increases deflection, lays down a huge footprint and controls rebound.[/align][/align]is it DOT approved?[/align]

Well mines a 340 seems to run pretty well, I saw the guy with the terraflex tire thought maybe he'd answer.
