    Re: Pre-banquet ride

    My first ever (ever ever) dirt ride was a pre-banquet ride with the LDR cats 2-ish years ago. They were (and continue to be) very patient with my noob ass. Not that I've improved all that much since then.

    I laughed out loud this morning at the wrong photo.

    Really looking forward to this. Gotta get the comms up for me, Butler and Draghi.

    Does that mean there will be units available for other KTM riders to borrow?

    I meant I'm trying to scrape together 3, because Draghi and I used his Scala but that left Butler out of the loop. These things aren't cheap!

    Re: Pre-banquet ride

    So should I ditch the trials tire on the KTM and put a real dirty tire for the terrain?

    Re: Pre-banquet ride

    I think you should. Clough can get relatively wet. I think trials tires don't handle mud so well. So I think you would be better served with something with bigger knobs.

    I think. I'm new at this.

    On the tire subject. I rolled the KTM out and inspected the tires the other day. Was hard to tell when coated in WV clay. But once clean I'm astonished at how badly I rounded off those fresh knobs in just 2.25 days of riding down there. Dirty tyres r soft and dey go kwick!

    I was thinking the exact same thing last night when I pulled the wheels off the KTM.

    You're more than welcome to borrow mine if you can't find another.

    Thanks dude. The possibility of destruction, combined with the certainty of filth, makes me very hesitant to borrow any.

    Trials tires have their place in NE terrain however of the couple of people I know that have run them one crashed pretty hard due to some slick mud (KB) and the other (ZX-12R) seems to love it but I have only ridden with him when it was relatively dry. What I can say is that the fast guys that I have the pleasure of going on the trails with (i.e. they wait for me at intersections) do not use trials tires. Most run the Bridgestone M59 front and a Pirelli MT16 rear. The front will vary from rider to rider but the vast majority running 18" rear wheels will have the MT16.

    Re: Pre-banquet ride

    according to chipper, Vee rubber makes a good tire. my 300 came with one on the back. i have since changed the front to a dunlop but the Vee out back hasnt let me down once.

    Re: Pre-banquet ride

    Maybe it's just because i suck, but my kdx has mx tires on (I think IRC) and they seem fine at 12/12psi. Then again they're pretty fresh still... maybe they'll degrade badly as the knobs wear. I think i've got about 50 trail miles on them.
