2 years later the effort placed in this video earned my subscription,
Very awesome to hear. Thank you
And 3 years later mine 😊
Wow, they're really really lucky 🙄
Hes are best tire buddy
I still keep coming back to your review. Fantastic source of seemingly unbiased info. Thank you heaps.
Much appreciated!
Really appreciate the work that you’ve put into this Kyle, informative and great to watch, thanks!
How does this channel not have more subscribers...
@@TheVaporous1 I'd like to believe it is because the videos are spread across so many different types of vehicles. ADV, Dirt, Street, Sport, Vintage, ATV, UTV, Trailers.... All the gear, helmets, etc... A specific "channel" for each segment of riding would "probably do better"... I think ;) Thanks for watching! -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
@pat Thank you for your comments and thanks for watching! It was our pleasure. -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
Ditto. very thorough.
Unbelievable superb information, answering so many question. I hope Kyle is at Chapparal when I need to get tires for my bike if not this helps tremendously. Thank you
THE BEST!!!! I’ve been seriously waiting on this and although I am at work, I set an alarm for this video and am in the latrine to watch it!!!!
Best comment thus far! Love it! Thank you for the support and for not dropping us in the pooper ;) -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
This is by far the most comprehensive tire comparo / review since Fortnine and the MCN sport touring tire shoot-out. Still amazed the Dunlop Trailmax Mission did so well, despite its non-knobby look. Awesome work, Kyle n Chap!!!
Wow, thanks! We greatly appreciate the kind words. Thank you for watching.
That was super informative! Thanks for putting so much effort into this, really really appreciate all the hard work.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching.
Wow! Thank you for this spectacular testing job to Kyle and his team! Phenomenal!
Thanks for watching! -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
Awesome test!!! The work that was involved was massive I’m sure. Looked like fun though. Your test results will impact my next purchase through Chap. Thanks again.
Sweet! Thank you for your support David. -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
Thanks so much for the great info on this subject! I am planning on trying my FJ09 in for a smaller ADV/Dual Sport this coming year. It is awesome to have some real world hard numbers to work with for tire choice. I feel tires are about the most important thing you have to buy for your bike.
Thank you for putting together the testing and info that magazines no longer do..... great job! And please keep more content like this coming!
Thanks for watching Pete! We will do our best! -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
Just awesome as usual. Your tire loop with the range of tyres, and in-depth analysis, still put you as the guru of these reviews. Thank your for this awesome mega tire review !
Much appreciated! Thanks for the kind words. We appreciate you watching the video.
Guys, that was defenitely the best tire test for adventure bikes that I‘ve seen so far! Congratulations and a huge thanks for that great job 👍🏻. Regards from Germany
Our pleasure! thanks for watching and the kind words.
A very informative piece of work, really makes you think. Thank you so much.
Flippin Elf you've put in some graft to make this video!!! And boiling all those hours down to 25 minutes! Well appreciated.
Loud applause! This was a terrific comparison and summary. We are fortunate to have such a broad variety of quality tires to choose from.
Outstanding review Kyle. Always a pleasure to watch what u have installed for us. Good job there
Ha! Ha! Sweet!!! Thanks for watching! -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
I just found your channel and have spent the last 3hrs watching the videos, amazing footage.
I have a 690 enduro, live in Australia and ride a few hours on blacktop then mostly firetrails with the odd single track thrown. What would you recommend pairing with a Motoz adventure or Rallz rear? (I hear the motoz fronts arnt the best)
Thanks mate and keep up the amazing work.
This is one of the best tire reviews I have watched, thanks man....
Wow, thanks! We appreciate the kind words. Thanks for watching.
Wow! This video will get viewed by every Adventure Rider out there... And that's quite a handful. Well done Kyle and Co. Keep up the informative work.
The goal is to help that rider find the best tire for their style of riding! We all ride a different ride and these tires really do cater specifically to very different styles of riding... even if lumped under the umbrella of 80/20 or 50/50. Thanks for watching! -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
Thanks for all of your past tyre reviews and this summary. Your impartial observations allow me to make more informed tyre purchases. Keep up the good work.
Glad to help! Thanks for watching.
That really cool man!, take off my hat… amazing review from really good expert! Thank you
Kyle, thank you for putting in all the time and thought into compiling this information. By far the most comprehensive tire review done by anyone. Now get out and enjoy the tire of your choice on something other than your “loop”!
Ha! Ha! Thanks for your suggestion Max. I will work on it ;) But now... I am stuck behind the keyboard replying to comments and questions. -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
Thanks Kyle for breaking it down like this! This is still relevant info today. The charting system that you display at the end is awesome. Big thanks!
Glad it was helpful! Take a look at our write up too which includes more info for all the tires. www.chapmoto.com/blog/motorcycle-gear-guides/adv-motorcycle-tires/
A very informative video. You have covered all the popular brands and tyres. Thanks for putting in this effort. Much appreciated.
Thanks for watching! -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
Great video Kyle! Thanks for all that you do for us riders.
Love the Battlaxe Adventurecross AX41 tires myself. Curious that the Mitas E0-7+ didn't warrant any comments?
Good question! The Mitas E07+ is a great 50/50 tire that fell mid pack. Mid pack made it not so talk-able for the that did really good and same with tires that did not perform so well. Kinda like the quiet kid... Overlooked a little bit. -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
ive just ran through my first set of K60 Scouts on my DR650 and because its only a 130 rear tire there is no center belt. that version of the scout is the best road tire ive ever ridden (even better than the pirelli diablo rosso 2 i had on my supermoto before). no matter if 20 degrees in the winter or 100 in summer, there was always superb grip and they are very transparent so you feel exactly what theyre doing. wet onroad grip was superb too. even when riding quickly in the twisties they never slid or slipped just like a real rain tire. offroad performance was relatively good as long as it was dry. in the mud they turned into racing slicks in no time.
i got around 4500 miles out of the rear (mostly on road with mixed riding) but after 50% tread wear it was just trash in the dirt like a road tire.
Thx ChapMoto and Kyle for putting together this in depth comparison, glad to see all the types of use and varied options in tread life and cost available.
Glad you enjoyed it! It was a labor of love for sure! -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
What an outstanding video! You have truly provided an amazing service here. Thank you!
Our pleasure! Thank you for watching. -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
You missed the Dunlop Trailsmart. I'm curious how they would fit in. However I agree with Max. By far the most comprehensive tire review done by anyone
The TrailSmart is an "un-purchased and unasked for tire" and is really more of a 90/10 rather than an 80/20. That being said, it would have given that blasted Kenda Paver Tire a run for its money! I will get a set mounted up and will give you a test of the TrailSmart tires here shortly. -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team

Amazing detailed adventure tire review that incorporated a mass of data collection and analysis. Well done!!!
Much appreciated! Glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching.
Nice informative video, great job! It helps me remember, so I especially liked it when you started putting the lists on the screen.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching.
Wow, this was so useful and informative Kyle. I am getting into ADV riding this spring and my Norden 901 arrives this week :) I was glad to see the stock Scorpion Rally STR's did well on your review as I will definitely be an 80/20 rider. What astonished me more is just how little mileage motorbike tires give you!! That was a huge eye opener to me (shock).
Glad it was helpful! Some people will get more or less mileage out of their tires depending on how they ride, terrain they ride, and their bike setup (luggage). Thanks for watching.
No mention of my favourite; Mitas E-09. I run them on both my 650 and 1290R. Good mileage, superb offroad.
bought my last set of tires from you guys just based on price. Will continue to buy from you guys from here on out for this level of effort. I really appreciate this, guys.
Much appreciated! Ride safe.
Invaluable information. The shear science in the numbers is clear. Really helped me pick which tire was for me. Thanks a ton Kyle and Chaparral for being my choice for all my gear and parts!
Great to hear! Thanks for watching.
You've justified my Shinko 705 purchase. Thank you!!
Awesome. Thanks for watching.
How do you like them so far?
Just came back from a 4500km mainly pavement trip. Loved the 705 front and back.
Riding some gravel near home this past weekend, they felt great and hooked up well.
My new favourite for 80/20.
I’ve run a few of them, and will probably put on another set. Great tire for highway, gravel and dirt road type stuff. Heavy but very puncture resistant.
I've read they don't do well in wet?
Thank you Kyle for really thorough and exhaustive review of all the available adventure tires. Everyone is going to watch it for sure.
Do you have any favorite which jumps out of you are riding to Alaska from East coast? Also, which one will you prefer for wet pavement, considering riding through rains?
Thanks and RideSafe!
Thank you for watching and for your inquiry. If I were riding to Alaska I would choose the MotoZ GPS tire and I would run it in the 50/50 direction. This will give a smooth ride... will last about 10k miles and will be perfect for the amount or type of off-road that is presented. Oh... and it is a great wet weather tire. -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
Respect to Kyle & the Chap Moto Team for all the effort and fun that went into this!
Thank you
Best tyre comparison I've seen on UA-cam. Well done and keep up the great work 👍
Thanks a ton! Glad you enjoyed it.
Kyle your the man. Great review and info! The Trailmax Mission tire weight surprised me. Seems like that extra weight contributes to the coverall scoring. Just installed a pair on my 2017 Vstrom 650. With my expected 70/30 use....can't wait to rack up the miles and enjoy my new purchase. Thanks
Awesome choice Rory! Please follow up with your feelings on the Mission tire after you burn (ever so slowly) through it. I really liked it on the V-strom 650 that I rode at the press launch. I think that you will get more miles than most other bikes... but only time will tell. -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
2017 V-Strom 650. I've got my Anakee Adventures to finish up, then I'll be finishing up a half-used pair of E07s I took off from later last year, then trying out the Missions which I've got sitting in my garage right now. I'll be interested to hear your thoughts considering hot stiff the Missions are
Wow. What a great presentation! Thank you and WELL DONE
Our pleasure! Thanks for watching. -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
Wow, have not even watched it all Fully yet, and already super appreciate the amount of work you guys put in to this
Glad you enjoyed it!
Epic test and review, Kyle! Great job in distilling down all the myriad parameters involved. Even knowing about all of these - or rather being reminded of them - is a good heads-up to considering and making a decision about any tyres that one is confronted with in the local shops.
Glad you enjoyed it! Here's the write up we did with even more details: www.chapmoto.com/blog/motorcycle-gear-guides/adv-motorcycle-tires/
Awesome review! Thank you!
Thanks for watching! -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
Outstanding! Thanks for all your hard work. The ratings at the end for each performance category are especially helpful for choosing the best tire for the riding I do.
Happy to be of service Dave! Thanks for watching! -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
That’s the most comprehensive tire review I’ve ever seen. So helpful! Thx.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching.
What a solid shootout! Thank you! This is the most helpful review online!
Thanks for watching Dave! -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
Great job!
Just picked up a set of Dunlop Mission’s for my Super Tenere. Thank’s to your tire testing I think these will be the best fit for my riding style.
Will do the same for my S10
Jerry, have you read the reviews for Pirelli Scorpion Trail lls?
Awesome! Thanks for watching. -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
How did they hold up for you? Do you reccomend them?
Kyle… great comprehensive test. Thank you. On my 18’ 1200 GSA I’ve rocked the Shinko 705’s (wonderful tire) & the Motoz GPS (awesome however sketchy in the wet (painted surface)). Presently riding a ’20 1250 GSA and considering the Anakee Adventure or Trailmax Mission. Leaning towards the Adventure due to the superior handling in the wet. 70/30 riding style. Again thanks. Your dedication is truly appreciated.
Thanks for watching! Love your profile pic! If looking for wet weather performance, the Anakee Adventure is fantastic! I have worn out a set and have ridden them in all conditions. The Anakee Adventure is much less dirt oriented than the Dunlop TrailMax Mission tire - that would be the tradeoff. Thanks for watching! -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
Hi. I’d love to hear your experience with either of those tires.
@@a2bwithlee Hi. On the '20 1250 gsa I went with the Anakee Adventure (22k kms). As Kyle alluded to these tires performed extremely well. Cold wet weather performance on asphalt, cement and gravel was essential. These tires were up to the task and lived up to their designed intent (80/20 may be 75/25).The only limitations wet mud. Regarding the Mission's I have no first hand experience. 🏍️✌🏼🏍️
@@amerpaisa6920 Thanks for sharing your experience. Great info’.
Ride safe!
Awesome video! Thanks so much for taking the time to test and produce this video!
For sure! Thanks for watching! -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
Almost 4 years later and this is still the best motorcycle tire video available anywhere :).
Right on! We appreciate the support. Glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching.
This being by far the best reviews of motorcycle tires available I'm wondering if a noise check should be added to the categories. In the videos Kyle always touches on this subject but I think it would be really interested to see this done with a decibel meter and then see if Kyle's feels the same when he rides. Thank you again for those great reviews.
Hi Haraldur, thanks for watching and the kind words. Great suggestion. We'll keep that in mind for next time. Ride safe.
Thank you for going that extra mile to bring us informed choices :-)
Our pleasure! Thanks for watching! -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
@@chaparralmotorsports was wondering what 50/50 you think would be good for greasy wet clay and a bit of mud.
Best bike tire test ever! You guys rock! Thanks so much! And thanks for all the separate test videos you've done, I've watched a ton of them. Btw, waiting for Mitas e-09 review :)
Ha! Ha! Thanks for watching! The E-09 as well as the E-12/E-13 are on the way for me to test! Looking forward to it! -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
Same here (e-09) Great videos btw
Great job doing that review, lots of work !!
Great!! An overall result would have been interesting. How good are some of the 80/20 tires in comparison to the 50/50 tires off road?
Great question Markus! Some of the 80/20 tires would have beat out some of the lower scoring 50/50 tires for sure! And vice versa... Sounds like a future video! Thanks for the suggestion. -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
Out-freakin'-standing!
I'm not one to get excited about shoot-outs, but this is exceptional in every aspect.
Kyle, you and the team responsible for this group of videos, and shootout, should be congratulated by every mfg in this test.
Every test result was represented positively, honestly, competently and with the depth of information that we all are looking for, to make solid decisions.
Seems we are all a bit different in what we want, and the depth of testing was incredibly thorough.
Your, and the teams, dedication to excellence reflects greatly on Chaparral Motorsports.
Cheers!
Hi ts, thank you so much for the glowing review. it really was a long process to test all these tires but it was fun and definitely worth it. Very glad to hear you enjoyed it. Thanks again, ride safe.
Incredible job, Kyle - thanks!!! Been watching your posts over the past year as you've individually tested these, it's quite the undertaking, and I thank you and Chaparral for doing this! As you've mentioned, the tire manufacturers are really stepping up, and the end result of your testing is almost a case of having too much information. The comments section also adds a wealth of info into the mix, too. My question is - you've suggested a couple of times that you are starting to run individual branded tires as opposed to a matching pair. I think you've said an AX41 or TrailMax up front, Motoz RallZ / Adv / GPS rear? Still rolling with that, or have you had any recent updates/suggestions for 50/50?
What a fantastic review! Plus you actually tested each tyre. That was very useful. So useful in fact, I subscribed. Thanks for all your hard work. Writing from the uk
Awesome, thank you!
Nice Kyle thanks for this! I'm running the E07+ on my 1190 Std. I love them but the front washes out as you pointed in one of your videos. Which front tire would you recommend to pair with the E07+ rear?
I've done 20000kms on a set of MOTOZ GPS and front still has 5000kms in them. Done a track day as well as a 3 week outback trip with no issues.
Thanks for the first conclusion with the tests. Funny to hear that the K60 scout are expensive in US because in France, it's a very low cost model. One of the cheapest I can buy here.
They're made in Germany, but the US importer must apply a confortable margin.
On the other side, Shinko Tyres are hard to find in France.
So interesting! Prices as compared to where they are made and how they perform... Set of K60 Scout $276 and the Shinko E804/E805 are $166... but the Mitas E-10 run $352 and get like 2k miles out of a set ;) The sets of Motoz tires were above $300 too. But they do last a long time - comparatively speaking. Thanks for watching! -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
@@chaparralmotorsports To compare, my last set of K60 cost me 137€ for the front and rear tyres. It's around 145 us$. For that price, the value is great.
Thanks Kyle for this great insights about dual purpose adventure tires, very helpful! Awesome review, exactly what I was looking for!
Hi Christian, thanks for watching and the kind words. Glad you found the video helpful. We appreciate the support. Ride safe.
By far the best review I've ever seen you do. I was pretty sold on the TKC 80's on the 1290 R, now you have me rethinking that. Almost thinking of different rims so I can run a true Moto tire.
Right on! Thanks foe watching.
Team, this is a fantastic explanation, and really explores the challenges of the 'perfect' tyre. I'd appreciate some discussion on mixing tyres however as they were strictly considered as pairs (with some exceptions). For example, my ADV shop recommended a combo of Tractionator ADV rear and Scorpion Rally front. The logic is that neither set is perfectly balanced for rear and front applications. The higher wear rating on the rear means more slip - not a problem for those of us who don't mind a bit of slip angle off-road. The Scorpion front however is very soft and bites well, particularly when you weight up the front on a descent. Together, this tyre combo runs out at approximately the same time - as long as you don't burn up the Scorpion on-road.
So what might improve this explanation, or simply increase its usefulness (it's already fantastic!), would be considerations for which application each tyre is more suited to for those who want to split sets.
Hi thanks for the suggestion, it really makes sense. We like the idea ad will put it to consideration for the future. Thanks again. Ride safe.
Sawyer post only put knobbies on the rear if you're going to be in mud get dog pads put a mission on the back and Nabis on the front
Silicone is awesome it pushes the water away and really grips same thing on my boots from Danner boots
By far the best tire review I ever seen!! Great job.
Wow, thanks! Glad you liked it. Thanks for watching.
Probably the most professional explanation about tires, Chaparral customer since 2003 excellent work!
Wow, thanks for the kind words Oscar. We greatly appreciate the support. Glad you enjoyed the video. Ride safe.
THIS is why you expend resources to educate everyone freely. Those who can do business with you, now WANT to. Choosing a tire is like choosing components for an AR15 - the choices are overwhelming! This cuts right to the chase. Excellent video.
Hi, thank you for the kind words. Glad you found the video helpful. Thanks for watching.
Great information as always. Makes buying a trie so much easier. Cheers.
For Sure! There is a tire suited for every specific type of ride and type of rider! Pretty eye opening for sure! And... 80/20 tires that function better than 50/50 tires and the opposite. Pretty awesome. -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
I bet it's been a while since the TKC80 hasn't appeared on a top [x] video. It just goes to show the advancements in the industry. Especially for the Dunlop Mission tyre to make a podium finish on it's first try.
Yeah right!? I tell you .... I tried EVERYTHING to attempt to get the Mission tire to be really what it looks like, an 80/20 tire. BUT, it really did perform and it performed really really well. Pretty nuts. Thanks for watching! - Kyle
Yes, that was the interesting part of this test. It really was done tire-by-tire... over the same course. Watching each test back it really is crazy to see how different each of the tire did in each segment. Now... the TKC80 is still a fantastic tire, and it has it's place in the market but there are no SO MANY options that really cater to specific riding styles. Take for example that Avon TrailRider - what a NEAT tire! And the Karoo Street... I'd rock that if I were doing mostly street! But... who needs a street tire if the Dunlop TrailMax mission "feels like a street tire" and handles off road too. Nuts... Thanks for watching! -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
@@chaparralmotorsports I've ridden about 5K miles on Avon Trailrider tires mounted on my Zero DSR. After trying Kenda K761 / Pirelli MT-60 / Conti Trail Attack 2 / Mitas E07. I ABSOLUTELY love the Avon Trailrider tires. Sure, they aren't great in sand or mud, but with enough throttle they will get through it. But if you like carving turns and blasting dirt roads / 2-tracks, they are fantastic. So predictable even in rain, cold, etc...
@@itchypalm36 i run tkc80s and they carve pretty dang good. i've scraped pegs plenty. the rear does wear quick though, so something else would be required.
Thanks for all the work all of you put into this!
You bet! Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.
Fantastic test! I’ve loved watching the videos.
Thanks for watching! -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
I was wondering in the top 3 of the 80/20 and 50/50 which of the is the best for wet conditions ? Regards from Colombia
I'm guessing you want a softer tire that is dual compound?
I want to end the life of my Battlax Adventure (came stock with my WeeStrom) so I can change to the Anakee Adventure. Those seem amazing.
They are great tires! Thanks for watching! -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
Looking to do the same with the tires on my '12 Wee (can't remember what they are, but they're still the factory ones as the previous two owners only put a combined 5400 miles on the bike) but looking to get the Shinko 705s because I'm cheap.
They handle well on street, terrible in gravel and the rear lasted 5500 on my DL1000. I got passed by my buddy’s C14 while wallowing around in a gravel road.
@@maximus-power Oh really? I expected them to be good on gravel
JustThaor mine were terrible. I didn’t air down because we were only doing short stints of gravel but I don’t expect to have to air down to run a gravel road.
I really liked the amount of work you guys put into the testing of all different tires, I appreciate being able to add my experience. I used the Hidenau K60 on a trip to Alaska and the noice coming out of the front tire made me consider taking them of my bike even that they had only 1000 miles. Once you went over 60 mph it was a bit better.
Hi Miguel, thanks for the compliment. Yeah road noise can be very bothersome for some people, you make a good point. Thanks for watching.
Thank you for putting this together. Great video and info 🤙
Our pleasure! Thanks for watching! -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
Do you have the data (depth, durometer, construction) in a table somewhere?
Also would be nice if you could have breakdown by front/rear.. thnx
cyclopathic yes, I’ll make a PDF of it Monday.
Yes, working on getting it on-line. If you email me, I can send you the PDF. -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
@@chaparralmotorsports I'd also be interested in having access to that data. Great, hard job guys!
Have you determined which ones may be more puncture resistant than the others? An important trait when miles away from anyone/anything.
Great question. One could look at our spreadsheet which has tire tread depth, tire weight, and ply make-up to see what tire would appear to have have been made with more puncture resistant materials. Interesting idea though... some sort of puncture tool that would rate what force it takes to push a nail through the tread / carcass. Hummmm.... Thanks for the idea! -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
@@chaparralmotorsports One reason I like the Shinko 244 - $100 per year. I get a lot fewer flats with new fat tires. Tread looks OK, too bad, new set every fall.
Wow Great job!!!! Thank you for your time and effort....even though it looks pretty fun...KYLE ROCKS!!!
Yes, it was a labor of love for sure! Thanks for watching! -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
Great comprehensive review that allows one to make an educated decision on the best tire set-up for their particular riding needs. I really appreciate the video. I wanted to ask if you could add another list that compared the relative weights of the tires. It could be something as simple as light, medium or heavy. You discussed how tire weight may affect performance at the beginning of the video and this information would be useful when selecting a tire.
Wish we had guys like you in Australia about to do 4000ks on Australian desert , outback roads and tracks all remote , would have changed my mind based on your report . Let’s see how the E10s go thanks mate for all the work u done it benefits all of us
Thank you for your comment Don. The Motoz tires are made in Australia and are some of our favorites! Killer 50/50+ tires! The E-10's were great but they wear out quick. On my personal bike I currently have the E-10 up front and a Motoz RallZ in the rear. SWEET Combo! -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
@@chaparralmotorsports I believe the Motoz are made in china but Australian owned.... but give them time, china will own them soon enough like everything else here.
Chaparral Motorsports mate did 5000 kms on desert , outback roads your right just made it home on an E10 it was over at 3000 kms it’s well and truly done now . Just picked up a tractionator adventure . When this isolation is over here it’s back to central Australia can’t beat up to 800 kms a day rides . Keep doing the testing and stay safe over there mate
Time to join the rest of the world and go metric ! F....the fractions !
It would be a lot easier. Thanks for watching,.
What, you don't miss that 33/64th socket? So stupid.
In Europe we have this stupid system, Tirewidth in millimeter, rimwitdth in inch , Rim/ tire diameter in inch and profile in percent .
@@TompaDee true, never thought of that 150/70 17,,,, 150mm 70mm on 17 inch rim lol.
@@roadwarrior8560 Yes but 70 is NOT 70 mm. Its 70 percent of 150. That is so, stupid🤪
Thanks for the in depth work and discussion Kyle.
Hi, thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed the video.
Great review, well presented and wonderfully useable information - Thank You!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching.
Chap moto is the my favorite dealership in ca. Honestly the best, you guys are amazing, I've gon there all my life thank you guys
Wow, thanks! We really appreciate the kind word and support Michael.
@@chaparralmotorsports thank you
Very good review! I like the fact that you narrate thoroughly enough that I don't need to visually keep track of the discussion but am able to listen to it in the background. Bought the AX41s for my local Oregon gravel roads but aside from being loud, they are performing well on street and inspiring confidence on dirt. Had I known the knobs are so short I may have chosen otherwise, and the rear is wearing quickly in the center. Otherwise so far so good. Thanks again for the review.
Much appreciated! Glad you enjoyed the video Marc. The AX41 are great tires, they have their minor flaws but overall really good. Ride safe
Epicly thorough video. Bravo!
Thank you.
I've got an SWM Superdual T fitted OEM with Metzler Tourance tyres. I know they are less than I need to get real confidence in the dirt and forest roads. I hate 'people's opinions' because everyone is an 'expert'.This is the best summation of tyres I have ever seen. Thanks

Chaparral Motorsports No worries a great 👍 channel
Fantastic video! Bravo! Thanks for all the effort that went into this video. I hope you do more video like this. I hope to visit your store soon.
I hope so too! Thanks for watching.
Chaparral Motorsports This whole series of tire testing videos and the ultimate conclusion is top notch work. The amount of views and traffic this series gets is not directly proportional to the amount of work you guys put in. Please let my purchase of a set Trailmax Mission tires act as a THANK YOU for your work.
Myles, thank you so much for watching the series and the very kind words. It was a long arduous testing process but also very fun. We greatly appreciate your support. Thank you again. Hope you enjoy your new tires. Ride safe.
So well done. Extremely professional. Best ever. Thank you..
Thank you for watching. Glad you enjoyed it! -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
Fantastic summation vid of all your great tire test vids. Love the work you have done for all of us. Have you published your stat worksheet anywhere? Tires are such a nemesis for all of us..lol
Yes JR, the full results with spreadsheets will be posted to our Blog here in the next week or so. Thanks for watching! -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
What a great video.. Thanks for putting this together! Means a lot.
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.
Greatest comparison of anything that I ever saw. Remarkable effort went into this shootout. I'm going to need tires soon for my new 890 Adventure R and this must be the third visit here for me. So much info to take in, it makes it a tougher decision but I am hoping my homework here, pays dividends in the real world. Will definitely support Chaparral Motorsports!!
Glad it was helpful! If you haven't seen it yet, take a look at our write up on this test. It has a little more information that may or may not make your tire decision easier. www.chapmoto.com/blog/motorcycle-gear-guides/adv-motorcycle-tires/

Thank you for these great reviews and greeting here from Iceland. Just subscribed to you channel after watching hours after hours of you videos. Best stuff I've seen on this. I'm curious what you would guys would think about the combo of Michelin Anakee Adventure as a rear and Dunlop TrailMax Mission at the front? Or actually what combo you would love?
