Of Tires and Fork Springs



Hi All, lots of talk about tires again.  I have 6,000 miles on Dunlop 207s
and the rear is still nicely rounded and looks like it will last another 2
to 3,000 miles easily.  The tires stick great and handle well.  After these
wear out 207s will go on again no question.

I have said it once and I'll say it again....tire wear is directly
proportional to your right wrist and how smoothly you ride.  I got 10,400
miles of the the crappy stock BT57's!  (Your results may vary;)

Has anyone found a suitable replacement for the front fork springs?  I want
something a bit stiffer to take out the first couple inches of mushy travel.
How about those that got the Ohlins how are they??

Ride Safe,
Charlie
