      Not gonna lie I've got the exact same tyres on my KLR650 I have 5000KM/3100 miles on mine and I have loads of tread left. I reckon you'll enjoy them ;)

    An easy way to mount that wheel is to use a ratchet strap around the seat and hoist the wheel up. Leaves your hands free to locate the axle. Thanks for the review of the tire!

    I was thinking about running these on my 17 Triumph Explorer. I have the GPS front tire currently and have been very happy with it. I've got more than 5000 miles on it and there is likely another 4000 of life left. Thanks for the great review!

    Glad to see I am not the only one who sometimes fights getting the wheel assembly back on the bike.😅
    That is a Motoz Tractionator GPS not a Motoz GPS Adventure as you said at the start.
    There is a Motoz Tractionator Adventure that is a 25% street / 75% Off-raod that is a great tire also. I know someone with a KTM 1290 with the Adventure tire and I could not believe how well they work on the pavement and of course great off-rooad.
    You can get 10K miles and more from the Motoz GPS (either direction of rotation) and the Adventure tires.
    Have a fun day.

    A bit of light oil on the axle and don't smear more grease on the outer seals as that just attracts dirt and grime and isn't adding anything. The bearings have caps on them, you can pop those carefully and add grease if it is looking dry.

    Mate I've had these on there great for long life 22000 ks out of the front and 13000 ks on the rear and still might get a few more ks. Front hangs on good on Tar and dirt the rear hooks up good when corning bit slipery in straight line but that solid line of rubber makes for long life if your munching a lot of hiway miles.

    @Ride_0n Рік тому +1

    I've had these tires on my F800GS for about 18 months and have done about 5k miles on them. I'm not very happy with them.
    1) The front tire required sealant to not leak. It went flat on me about a week after being intalled, 100 miles into a 5 day trip. It just doesn't seal on the rim. It leaked slightly all around the rim. I googled around a bit and at least one other person has had the same problem with these front tires.
    2) The front tire wanders leaned over at lower speeds on pavement. Too much so. It's rather unpleasant. I've noticed that after 5k miles, it doesn't really do that any more, but that's a lot of miles...
    3) The rear has been fine. Sealed, holds air, does not have any handling issues.
    4) I am going to get a LOT of miles out of these. Which is good, they were not cheap!
    5) not noisy on the highway at all.
    I haven't tested them off road much, but from what little I have, they do pretty well. If the front tire didn't wander and sealed properly, I'd be happy with them.

    • @AdventureTomek
      @AdventureTomek  Рік тому

      I an really enjoy the rear GPS. Wish I went with a it more aggressive front tire.
      The front tire in my case did not seat properly due to a few rim indentations.
      Ended up putting a tube in.
