Tires NITTO or KENDA
I just put Nitto Motivo 365’s on 25’ TS yesterday. They are an ultra-high performance all-weather tire engineered for performance in dry, wet, and snow conditions. It provides all-season's usual dry and wet performance, enhanced with 3PMS-rated snow traction for true all-weather confidence.
Kenda K-RAD are super grippy!
Perfect all around tires for this kind of bike.
I am running the Terra Grappler G3’s and so far love them.
I recently put HPAS 205/50/15 Nitto Neo Gen on my NB since i’m on a budget. So far they’ve been much better than expected. They grip significantly noticeably more than what the previous owner had (ironman tires.) they grip to the point i struggle to throw the rear out without kicking it. Last tires I could cut the wheels and just hit it and the rear would slip out but with these even flicking it doesn’t want to break out. They’ve been performing great in corners as well, I’ve been able to take some 10-20mph faster without worry.
Went in for touch up woolwax undercoating yesterday and put on some new Nitto Terra Grappler 3s to replace the factory tires last week.
Personally go with nitto ridge grapplers .. they are fantastic on the highway not loud.. very comfortable… also though they are amazing in sand and off road dirt/mud. I bough the ridge grapplers that you can easily get 50-60k miles with normal rotation..
For example the K193 Tires were made to be super puncture resistant at a higher PSI than the first K Series(100PSI) but due to budgeting, they had to sacrifice handling, and also some rolling resistance, they do roll nice but not the best, they handle like crap, and aren’t not safe in the rain despite being advertised as such..lol… they also wear like iron, after 8,000 miles i still have life left them in and never had any puncture issues compared to other tires.
I’m currently running Nitto Ridge grapplers 37x12.5x17 D-rated tires. I’m in need of a full set after about 30k miles. I do like the Nittos I am running, they are fairly quite and wheel great but I think a higher rated tire would help.
late to the post but i just hit 70,000 km on my ridge grapplers. shit tire off road,snow,ice,mud but will last.
I just put one of those tires on the front of my K1600 & it doesn't like speeds over 70 mph. It handles good at low speeds & in the rain, but I don't like it at all on the highway. Feels like rain grooves on any surface.
