| Those look fun. May have to give them a try. Seems like I'm buying a new MT60 twice a week anyway. |

I was speaking to the owner of a local off road shop and he was telling me these tires come of a small schoolboy motox, using a rear tire on the front- also said the tires just don t last!
I was wondering if the weight of the baggy would make any difference in the handling.
having spoken to so many people - i might just use some rain tires- like the MT60ś I started with!!
