Hi all, I’m getting ready to order a new set of tires and wanted to ask you if anyone has tried these tires and what do you think of them. I will appreciate your opinions and comments. Thanks
THAT being said, I think I will be trying the NEW Michelin Anakee 3 on my next change.....barkingllizard said:I ride them: two thumbs up from me.....
The Kawa Versys does not run the same rear tire as the S10. And the avon distanzia that fits the versys is made for supermotard. That means a softer compound and therefore a shorter life.Andrew said:My girlfriend burned thru a rear Distanzia in 5,000 miles riding from Houston to Dawson City last summer on a Versys; it runs the same size rear as we do. Yes, we were heavy loaded...but for a "distance" tire it seemed unimpressive. We put on a Trail Attack in Dawson, rode the Dempster, and she got new shoes at Yukon Yamaha in Whitehorse on the way back south. I mounted the Trail Attack on the T along with my new K60 front; it's dead now with 5,000 heavy-loaded miles. Anyway, she liked her Scorpion Syncs better for wet and dry traction, and got better mileage commuting on Houston's freeways - they're no longer available and she's going to PR3s after our spring dual sport rally. Best of luck...OH: When I took off my Battlewings at 6200 miles, I felt they had another thousand in 'em.
