Hi

Ive been running the stock tyres for 5000km, mostly on-road. They still look OK but someone recently advised me that they are only good for 2000km

Replacement stocks are about 2400 for the two.

I guess i want a 50/50 on/off-road tyre.

Ive been looking at Dunlop 603, 604, 605, 606 prices are about 5,500 baht for the pair here in chiang mai

Are there any other tyres i should be looking at? Yes i mainly ride on the road but i want to go offroad and have good traction offroad. I generally drive slowly and carefully on-road so id prefer a 50/50 tyre than a 80/50

Any ideas, prices, where to buy? Im in Chiang Mai.

Thanks

Only good for 2000 km ??? why?? A tyre seller advised that? The CRF has IRC OE tyres?

I've used the OE Dunlops on my KLX for 17 K

I use now Pirelli Scorpion on my KLX there more road orientated but still good for light trails.

I think ill stick with the stock tyres.

I haven't had a slip yet (touch wood)

Over 100km/hr you get a tiny bit of tank slap and doesn't feel very safe. But really shouldn't be doing over that speed on a dirt bike anyway I guess.

Im modded and can do 160km/hr but i would never do that

When I had my Dtracker I put on a steering stabilizer and it saved me a few times off roading.

Maybe there's one for your bike?
