    They have a good wear rate, Matt had one on his bike and it lasted for ages, even with a fair amount of road riding. Grip wasn’t bad either.

    I’m running Dunlop 952’s front n rear…on Husky 610. the rear has taken me 2200 k’s to date is almost ready to be flicked. The front is new and is best I’ve had on it..not hard as its only the 2nd on it. Sadly the dunlop is only 120, I’d rather a 140, the trade up is quicker response in handling..trade off?? maybe hook up, although it’s done a very good job of that at 120 anyway. .. Are the retreads road legal? 9 wouldnt matter much, dont think the 952’s are anyway.??

    Nah, I’m pretty sure the 952’s aren’t DOT approved. You could get the 6 days tyures that are sold with new KTM’s. they go alright for a such a small knob and are DOT approved. I think TB was running them on his 650R. Or at least the rear anyway.

    Said it before but the Bridgestone ED12 I’m running on the back hasn’t be bad at all.

    The retreads are like any other nobby tyre they are “not for highway use” but I got my WR450 blue slipped with a nobby:laugh: at the moment Im out of 18′ rears for the bigger bikes I will be ordering some today. I do have plenty of fronts though and are well worth a try,hope this helps
