[Gflo]

The hospital bill is going to cost more than a set of decent knobbies.

It doesn't feel heavy when you ride at least to.me I am 16 we will see 

If you come watch look for 701

 

Everything I have see of the race the drz will have no problem unless its mud like last year.

[Drw814]

Why would you even enter an off-road race with dual-sport tires? Never mind a 6 hour race. 
 

The Drz is plenty capable, Gabe from torture test magazine just did the 24hr on a dr200. But entering with dual-sport tires is a dumb idea and you are going to have a bad time. 

[Nathan Kruse]

Alright they are I think 70 offroad rating so they are a offroad tire not like a 50 50 tire definitely more for offroad. 

[Big Ron L]

Put proper tires on it and you’ll be fine

[Nathan Kruse]

Remember  drw 814 die trying

Yes, they are dual sport tires. I would run either 90/10 off-road bias, or actual knobbies. You don’t understand how much grip you loose in that 30% street rating. You are putting yourself at a huge disadvantage before the race even begins by entering with poorly suited tires.

Alright any good dot approved offroad tires at least 80 offroad rating for a cheaper price preferably under 80$

Their ok, not great but 100% better then the tires you were going to run.

I used them for years when I rode a Dual-sport cuz I couldn’t afford a truck.

[Nathan Kruse]

Those are mine now

[highmarker]

Fit small,  use the 120

[Nathan Kruse]

I have 120

I can't find any Dirt bike tires so I am just going to send it on what I got

They’re solid tires, I have them on a few of my bikes. Way, way better than what you have now. I wouldn’t even bother entering a 6 hour off-road race with old and worn dual-sport tires.

If you complete this 6hr race, and ride at least 60% of it, I will send you $100.
