Tusk D-Sport Tires

I must say good riddance to that awful Kenda K784 Big Blog that I ran last season on the KLR600. For more details on my experience with the Kenda, see my video review:


The replacements are the (fairly) new Tusk D-Sport tires that were introduced only this past October. There really are not a lot of reviews on these tires yet and I hope to develop some good experiences during the current season and make one of my own.

Replacing the Kenda Big Block on the rear that has 1,575 miles and is at about 40% tread left.


Replacing the Dunlop D-605 50/50 dual sport tire that, quite frankly, is a damn good tire in that dual sport category. The only reason I'm replacing it at this time is to experience the D-Sport on the front and rear. However, it's still got a lot of life and I'll be keeping it in stock.


Stay tuned for a review around mid summer after I have some events under my belt with the Tusks.
