I put a MOTOZ RALLZ on the back of my 890R, a great dirt tire, the worst road tire Ive ever tried. Just doing medium length rides to get to dirt.............................gawd the noise and vibration and skittering and wandering across the road................yeah it looks great, big knobby. I took it off and sold it. If all you ride is dirt its the way to go. VERY expensive, over 200 US.

Only thing that spoilt it was all the twats lower down in their new white trainers dropping their crap everywhere looking like they were off to a nightclub. I’m torn between doing the trans northern trail or maybe just the the mainland part of the ACT - so I think that’s Llandovery up to Lancashire then C2C across to Yorkshire ending up in Whitby. But I defo wanna ride in Cumbria, not done anything in the NW.
