Hi Chuck, I do remember those Oklahoma winds. Riding season is about to kick in for me and I look forward to it. It’s always good to hear from you and keep both wheels down.
I had these tires on my CFR250L for over 3,000 miles and really liked them. The rear was great because it didn’t wear quickly and gave excellent traction on/off road. The front wasn’t so good but was still accessible. They definitely aren’t the best but for the price, I think they’re hard to beat.
Did you have any problems with the front being wobbly at highway speeds. I had a Dunlop d605 on the front before with no problem but I’ve balanced this one twice and it’s still unstable on the highway.
@@thepaytonsvideos My problem with the front was never speed wobble. In looser gravel and sand, it would wash out easily. Also, it became quite out of round as it wore down making for an imbalance that could not be fixed. It was okay when it was new but it got worse over time. I still liked the rear. I think a lot of our experiences with tires are dependent on our rising style and our local terrain. I think that's why there can be such wide opinions on tires.
Good to see ya up and riding.I went riding for awhile this afternoon but winds of 38 mph took some of the fun out of it. Chuck Alva Ok
