OH NO!!!! Another tyre question........
I'm sorry.......but what are your recommendations for a new set of tyres for a 640 adventure? Went out on Sunday up to Rivington Barn, went down the 'ice-cream run' and my tyres are pants. No grip on grass!!Could of turned painful very quickly. So let the abuse begin. I know it's horses for courses but I would prefer more off road, legal tyres. Cheers....

Nothing sticks on wet grass it's as slipery as the cow shit (brown ice) on the Picos mountains. hmy:

Lightness is everything.
Lightness with Grunt is a Scratcher!
An Adventure is not a tank transfer.

On that bike you've got a huge choice. I'd be looking at enduro tyres as they are road legal.
After that you can go to more road bias one if the enduro ones are too much.

I am quite impressed with the Mitas E-09 I have fitted on the rear, same is going on the front, that or an ex-MX knobbly if I can drop on one

I'm a big fan of the E09 rear but the front is uter crap. I scraped it after a few days. The army special on the front is a better tyre to match up to the E09 rearSteveR wrote:On damp grass?jarvis wrote:I'm sorry.......but what are your recommendations for a new set of tyres for a 640 adventure?
