- Join me, Tiger Coward, in this video as I upgrade my tires to Dunlop TrailMax missions! Watch as I tackle the installation process step by step, avoiding any mishaps this time. Stay tuned for my rant on tires - you won't want to miss it!
Ifound the answer to my tire question. Lol. Searching and watching your videos, Thanks.
Thanks for watching!
I really believe that the best way to find out what you like is to get out and ride.
Some people are more excited about tires, others about luggage. I am more focused on comfort.
I believe that if you are not comfortable while riding, then you are not safe.
Check out my video on comfort mods.
Thanks again for watching.
You can also find me on Facebook book, Tiger Coward with the same logo. That page is entirely devoted to Adventure Motorcycling.
You have someone do your tires, so I see needing them both off.
My V-Strom, since I do my own tires, is easy. With the center stand, the rear is off the ground. I change it and put it back on.
The front tire, I loosen the pinch bolts, loosen the axle, remove the calipers, pull the axle out and the front lifts and the bike settles on the rear tire.
My bike has the tire speed monitors, and you have to remember to remove those before yanking axles.
I've been running the Missions on a DL1000XAL8/2018 V-Strom 1000XT. With the stuff I carry, it's about a 600lb motorcycle
The front was replaced at 9000 miles (14,400K) because it was scalloping.
The rear has 12000 miles (19,200K) on it, and I can see it's only got about 3000 miles (4,800K) left.
I do NOT run my tires down to the wear bar.
And I have to say the tires mileages were about 70% gravel/dirt and 30% street.
On the street, they are almost as good as a Bridgestone Trail Wing. Rain isn't a problem.
On dirt and gravel, they are great. They are not so great in deep mud or deep sand.
They don't have the voids like a knobbie to sling mud under 8 miles an hour or to dig down through sand.
The entire Hampster Ride was on the rear tire I still have on the bike and the replaced front tire.
Yeah, I am happy to pay to have the tires changed and get it done properly. I don't trust myself.
Thanks for watching.
Btw these tires were great on the Trans Tiaga!
I am thinking of getting these . But moving from a Road 6 . i am going to miss the absolute missile in the twisties. Took me to the tail of the dragon tour too.If i take the bike to track or chase sport bikes i will get them again. But going more off road and want these . Please update . Not bad for a bruins hater.
Thanks for watching!
I will definitely do an update when I get back.
Go Leafs go!
Lol
just returned from James Bay. The checkin booth informed us the Trans Taiga is un rideable for bikes. They resurfaced alot of it with large sharp rock like gravel. Hydro quebec guys told us they have helped guys with smashed wheels and bodies. Take care my friend
Oh dear, that is new intel!
I will be doing my homework now.
Thanks, Heather.
I rode the entire length of the Trans Tiaga.
Parts of the North Road were worse than anything on the Trans Tiaga.
What are you riding?
