Rear Kenda Knarly soft compound
Front Kenda Klaw soft compound
I just got them mounted today, and I only have about a half hour of testing on them. So far they seem to be good tires. I have tested them on extremely hard packed dirt, grass, and loose soil. They seemed to hook up and pull hard on all of these conditions hard pack being the least of the three. The Knarly's seem just a little bit heavier than most Mx tires, although I could not feel any difference on my LTR450. The fronts seem to bite in with no pushing in the turns, however maybe a little bit of sidewall roll when you blast into a turn noting major. I will use these tires mostly for trail riding and some MX style terrain. I do not see how you could go wrong with this setup for the above riding conditions. I cannot say much about tread life yet, but I have herd that these tires last longer than most comparable Mx tires. I also liked the price of $223 shipped to my door from R.M.
