thanks for your insight, just put on the Dunlop Trailmax Missions, scary at the first roundabout with a reluctance to turn in but easing off now their getting scrubed in .
what about your air pressure / speed off-road/on-road you are riding? I always have got problems with my tires on GSA 1250, I'm riding maybe too fast ( like 120-140 km/h on road / up to 100-110 km/h off road) and the last Mitas E07+ survived 4.5k miles (6k km) ...
I run road pressures all the time. Road speeds are about the same as yours on twisty roads. Trail speeds are lower as most of the trails in my area are pretty technical on a GS.
They can get a bit overwhelmed in deep mud, but if you can keep the bike moving forwards it helps to clear the tread blocks. It’s the same with the Anakee Wilds that I’ve got fitted at the moment.

For sure, off road tyres are a bit weird at first. Glad you’re getting used to them.
Have Karoo 4’s on mine, love them! PS great lanes!
Yes, they’re brilliant. Thanks for watching 😊
I can't wait for next month on those roads and to see what you get up to with the new tyres
I’m looking forward to it too 😁
so am i@@EpicMotorcycleAdventures

Looking at putting some of these bad boys to do the ATC and parts of the TET in the Pyrenees in May. You think they will be man enough?
They’ll be plenty good enough. I used them on the ACT U.K. and riding the Great Western Trail.
Great review thanks, what about road noise from the Karoo 4’s?
Thank's for watching. They're quieter than the Karoo 3's, but off road tyres are noisier than road tyres. I always wear ear plugs so hardly notice it.
Have you tried the TKC 80’s and how do these compare to the Conti’s ?
Hi,
I’ve not tried the TKC 80’s yet.
What are they like in mud compared to other similar tyres you have used? Thanks.
They can get a bit overwhelmed in deep mud, but if you can keep the bike moving forwards it helps to clear the tread blocks. It’s the same with the Anakee Wilds that I’ve got fitted at the moment.
Thanks for the info!
No worries. Happy riding.
Take a look at Mitas E-07's.
Good on road, good off road, but not in deep Welsh mud (clay)
Grumps
I’ll keep those in mind for the future. Are any tyres truly good in clay?
They've done fairly well I'd say if you've got 4k+ out of them. I only get around 2.5k out of a set of MT43s on my ol' girl.
Those NT43’s must be super soft. I guess the lack of Mike’s you get is the trade off for the increased grip.
What pressures was u putting in them
Normal road pressure. 36 front. 42 rear.
My ability def lets me down rather than the tyres I use on the big bike
We will both get better with practice 😁
@@EpicMotorcycleAdventures mate you are flying... I run 80/20 dirt tyres on a lighter bike and still struggle! 🤣
Ha ha, thanks Pete.
I got 1200 miles ost of my rear and 2400 out of the front😅
They for sure don’t last long.
@EpicMotorcycleAdventures they were a great 1500km, until they started to get a shake towards the end and off road went to shit
Huh, my 310 50/50 are way less knobbly. I’m envious.
What you got on the 310
@@EpicMotorcycleAdventures Metzeler Tourance, straight from factory.
I’m pretty sure Tourance are 70/30 tyres. (70% road)
@@EpicMotorcycleAdventures huh. Will check :)
I checked on TwoTyres website

These or dunlop raid mmm 🤔
I’ve not used the Dunlops.
Never go full Borat 😂
