Default RE: Tires again...

I would like to get spare wheels for my KLX as well. I ride 99% in the sand and mud here in Florida and need to put my still new stock tires on spare rims for when I go to Georgia and ride in the hard stuff.

If you find a good place to get spare wheels, post it please.

I love the 606's but I try to do most of my riding in the dirt. I'm not as confident with them on the road as I was with the 603's, but I havent scuffed them up much yet so maybe its just a mental thing and something to get used to. Awesome tire though.

I probably corner on the blacktop harder than anyone on the KLX or at least I'm right up there, and I live in a town that has both a lot of diesel trucks which drip oil and fuel and 140 inches of rain per yearand have yet to slip once. And when you look at my back tire it is not square, its round which tells me that I am cornering just the right amount.

Thats good to know as I like to corner pretty well in the twisties and like to lean on every corner.....I guess they need a good 100 miles on them to scuff them in though huh?

I think i read somewhere to "break them in" for 160 miles? I'm sure its just a confidence thing for me personally cornering, as deej is roughly my size and can handle them. If he can so can you
