Time for New Tires
« on: November 10, 2011, 04:15:43 AM »
Hello Friends,

Well I got a screw in my rear tire, and it was time for a new tire anyway. It is approaching winter and I am thinking I should get a snow tire. Does anyone know of a good snow tire, or should I just hang up the boots and get a quad for the winter?

how about that teraflex tire? I've never been in the snow on a bike but it sounds scary.

This might also be a good snow tire if you are not running spikes or a paddle.

I've had my KX500 out in the snow and ice for years. All's you need to do is add ATV ice screws to your tires. Don't waste you money on a paddle tire. The biggest issue with snow is that when the snow gets to be over 5" in depth, your front end tracking will be very inconsistant and "wallow". This is especially true if the snow gets "soft and wet". You would be amazed at how fast you can crank down a frozen, packed down snowmobile trail !!
