That is a really well designed front tire. Looks like I will be ordering one soon for spring riding.

It’s a great tire. You will not be disappointed. I totally dig it!

Another home-run video Kyle!! Your videos always inspire me to try different tires 💪 ✌️

[@manybikes]

Glad you liked it! It's a fun tire, you'll enjoy it.

[@othgmark1]

It will also raise the front end slightly with the higher profile and give a little bit more stability. There maybe a slight loss in steering quickness. I am a firm believer that more tire options are better. Great video with an excellent explanation on the reasons for the tire.

[@doc650adventures]

Absolutely true! A fatty front will reduce steering quickness but is great in sand

[@manybikes]

You nailed it on the head. More options are always better for us riders.

[@manybikes]

Here in SoCal we can use all the sand and rock help we can get!

[@othgmark1]

@manybikes Those two are the main obstacles for sure!

[@manybikes]

@@othgmark1 you would know for sure! Being raised in Norcal… I was not aware of the vastly different terrain down here! I like it when a new rider says, take me somewhere without sand, please. And I don't really like going over rocks either…

Thanks for watching Frank!

[@jimhurkman8657]

Put 6000 miles on a Mitas 90/90 Dakar on my T7, Hands down best off road tire I have ever used. Like you said Kyle the off set side knob is key. But on the street it loves to track rain grooves and tar snakes and I never feel comfortable pushing it in the twisties. The best street adventure tire hands down is the Dunlop Rally Raid, Handles like a sport bike tire but off road is very nerving as it wants to push and is not even in the same ball park as the Mitas. As like many thing in the adventure world its all a compromise so plan accordingly on your next ride.

[@manybikes]

Totally! Compromise everywhere. Now if we could get a Rally Raid street feeling tire and an XT+ dirt feeling tire... UNICORN! Thanks for watching and for leaving your feedback.

[@Angry-Lynx]

Try k60 ranger behaves on road like road tire and good enough in mud and soft stuff, modern compound, react very well to wet and cold. I'm putting it on front again as winter tire

[@manybikes]

If you like that tire in the wet, give the Karoo 4 a shot. WOW!

[@TheBeardedGrump]

I have to admit that Mitas has a good looking tread pattern but you know what kind of tires I just love 😉

You got me curious, let's hear it!

[@CurtisBrandt]

Thank you for the update on these new tires. I will try a Rally Pro next!

[@manybikes]

I am running the Rally Pro in the front now and am impressed with the traction and feel, even on the road. Was a little wiggly to begin with... but it has settled in nicely. Sticky on the street. Conforms over obstacles. I like it a lot.

[@CurtisBrandt]

Sounds good! I noticed earlier but temporarily forgot - the rear in that tire is a 140. Perhaps best used on the narrower, off road focused rims?

[@manybikes]

@@CurtisBrandt Yes, that is correct. The 140 is best suited for the narrower rims. I haven't tried the rear as of yet, but the front I really like.

[@FluxExplorer]

I had the hardest time getting along with the 90/90-21 on my 1090 in Colorado this summer and now back home in Georgia. Something about the tread pattern wanted to keep washing out offroad and on the street I felt every single imperfection in the pavement. I ran psi from 25-33. It’s still on my bike because it’s lasted quite awhile but now that it’s starting to scallop, I’m ready to try something else. Just my experience with it.

[@manybikes]

Thank you for your feedback. I am on my 3rd one on my 1190 and have not experience that at all. Sorry to hear you dislike it. Bummer. And slipping out in the corners... nuts. Mine have been like being on rails.

[@OneOldManRiding]

One could say that this tire means "Mitas or Nuthin!" for offroad 21" fronts! - Frank

[@manybikes]

I am stoked on these fronts for sure! I have mixed front and rear brands for years. MT21 & D908rr was a go-to for a lots of years! This XT+ front and a RallZ rear sound like a wining combo for sure.

Did you take a durometer reading on those? BTW thanks for continuing to test and review tires for us.

[@manybikes]

Yes Sir! The new Fatty Dakar was right at 65 on the durometer. Thanks for watching. It is a labor of love... that's for sure. What are you riding and what tires do you like the best?!

[@crashdsnowman1]

@@manybikes 500 EXC-F kind of a Lt WT ADV bike for weekend trips, Smokey MTN 500, Chattahoochee BDR, Mid Atlantic BDR but also find it more fun to ride the twistys than my 790 Duke. Our terrain and wet conditions are far from what you ride. I don't really look for a high mileage tire since I don't travel hours on the highway. The TKC80 stick great in all but greasy red clay. I used a Anakee wild rear with a TKC80 front. Anakee rear works better than TKC 80 for our conditions. Now I'm interested in trying The Mitas Trail Rally Pro front you recomended. After you mentioned Mitas a while back I looked on their site and found my new favorite Enduro/ hare scramble tires for my 250XC, Mitas EX MH so thanks for that. Rallz will be the next rear. Thanks again.

[@samhill3496]

Look great. Always like a little bit bigger tire. I have Tenere with 21 and BMW R9T UGS with 19, so a different animal there. Thanks for the info. Appreciated.

[@manybikes]

Thanks for watching! I have the 21" / 18" on my 1190 and 950 and I have been running the 19" /17" on my 390. The 110 series tire on the 19" wheel works great.

[@Angry-Lynx]

Wheel will rotate slightly slower for the same speed vs 90/90 so abs will work more aggressively i think. But whether youll feel that small difference idk 🤔

[@manybikes]

We'll find out!!!

[@minnionator]

If only these were in stock, I've checked everywhere online in Canada and no one has them, nor does anyone have an expected delivery date. Lol. Hope they're better than the 90/90 E13 I have!

[@manybikes]

Yeah, they are slow to hit the shelves. Keep trying! There is a company called Shippsy.com that I can ship to here in the USA... You then pay them a small fee to deliver. Three guys have used this for my tires and they pay $7 to $13 to get their tires delivered. Check it out.

[@hall5348]

Thanks Kyle! How do you think this tire would do in the mud on an adventure bike? I’ve been running a Dual Venture in the front of my 890, and after riding in mud I’m thinking of going to the Rallz for better front tire traction.

[@manybikes]

This tire does great in the mud. This tire vs. the RallZ front in the mud will be close... but this one is WAY better on the highway over the RallZ.

[@zap5936]

Great video Kyle, stay on the problem of tires being too small to absorb all the shocks of the big heavy bikes. I've done videos about that years ago, and you have 2, don't you think? Adventure bikes need tires, light the front of a bobber?

[@manybikes]

Yes! ADV bikes that weigh 500+ lbs need some cushion between them and the objects they will be slammed into. That is for sure! I'd love to see a 100/100-21 or a 110/90-21 .... Mad traction, but they probably would turn in like a truck on the highway. Always looking for something different and better. Thanks for watching!

[@dwayneneufeld1696]

With autos, differences in tire diameter will cause ABS problems. It would be interesting to know what the limit is in dia difference before problems start.

[@manybikes]

Yeah, good question. A knobby tire new and a knobby tire worn our are 1/2" difference or more and the system does not seem to care. This would be closer to an inch of change with this new tire. We shall see!

[@infinityphotorob]

On something like the 1190 it might be cooler to have a slightly taller front end for better geometry offroad. Especially going down steep hills. Not a huge difference but it will for sure provide a slacker head angle. Where can we buy Mitas in the USA?

[@manybikes]

Yeah, I am stoked to get them on the 1190! I am selling them on my site. www.Manybikes.biz Here is the direct link to the XT+ tires: manybikes.company.site/products/Mitas-ENDURO-TRAIL-XT-20-Road-80-Off-Road-Tires-p590057705

[@richardconnoly]

I love the fatty tires on my high-fender enduro bikes. However, front fender clearance on my Tiger 800 is a concern when mud or wet sand builds up on the front tire.

[@manybikes]

Yeah, I could see that. I am running the stock low fender on my 1190... will need to test that out.

[@robsonenduro3316]

that fatty tyre is tempting for my tenere but does it make handling a bit slower for technical terrain? great vid!

[@flagkennyrider]

Cool Kyle. I have the regular XT+ front on my 690 and it's perfect for that bike. On my 890 I used to run both rallz but while they are excellent off road I ride that bike more on the street and got tired of the bad road manners so put trailmax raids on. That solved the road manners issue very well but I'm concerned about that front washing out off road. Would this fatty have near the same road manners as the raid or if not can you recommend something that would while still having a decent speed rating?

[@manybikes]

Yeah, the RallZ front I am not a fan of on-road. The two best fronts are this XT+ or the Bridgestone AX41 for most aggressive with best road manners.

[@chrischevalier6107]

Kyle, are they more difficult to install?

[@ADV_Agenda]

I have found Mitas tires very easy to install ✌️

[@manybikes]

@@chrischevalier6107 easier to install actually. The taller sidewall allows for less leverage and more flex.

[@stevec3936]

Hey Kyle, thanks for the tire news! I am running the Tusk 2track front and rear on my Tuareg because of the sidewall stiffness. I am in southern Nevada so rocks and sand are about 50% of my off--road riding. The rims on this bike are pretty soft and I haven't had any rim issues with the 2tracks so far... are the sidewalls on on these XT+ as hard as the Tusk? Thanks man!

[@manybikes]

Thanks for your feedback. These sidewalls are not as stiff as the Tusk 2Track, I don't think anything is ;) The extra height on the new Fatty will allow for extra squish which will provide better protection with great feel. I am excited to test them out!

[@adv6504]

Thanks for the review and info! Any report on how it impacts your bikes speedo? (I imagine it’ll report going slower than you are by a little bit)..

[@manybikes]

Speedo.... it was not accurate anyway. And with nearly an inch difference between full knob and worn out... I go just faster than the flow of traffic anyway ;)

[@dawn-moon]

it would be nice to know the compliancy behavior difference between the stiff dakar version and the non-dakar version, I opted for the Mitas recommended tire on the next KTM Adventure Rally in Romania next year, I'm curious what tire they will bring to the event as recommended one ...

[@manybikes]

Was the recommended tire the E07+? This XT+ is great. I have run three different fronts including the Rally Pro. The Dakar is 1.5 lbs heavier than the Non Dakar and 3 lbs heavier than the Rally Pro. The lugs on the Rally Pro move A LOT compared to the other two. The Dakar is the most stable on the highway as it does not squish or squirm as much as the other two. Identical tread pattern... very different feels.

[@dawn-moon]

@@manybikes ok, thx ! The default one was indeed the e07+ , but I've swapped them for the Dunlop trailmax raid. I've not been able to ride since due to an accident. My goal is the Rally in Romania, only mtb at the moment as preparation 😅🤙

[@manybikes]

@ well heal up quickly, train hard and best of luck at your rally

[@moulin680]

Hey Kyle! Would this taller tire shorten the fender clearance?? It’s already really bad on most bikes with low front fender…. I’m afraid it’s gonna be worse…. I hope when you mount it, you measure the clearance with the 90/90 versus 90/100. ! Keep up the good work !! 👍

[@manybikes]

It's a good call... I'll make sure to measure the clearance and report back. I have the stock low fender on my 1190 and we will see!

[@wojtekb62]

What about rear XT+? Are you planning to review it any time soon? How does it stack up against motoz tractionator adventure for example? I'm really curious you opinion on that. All the best mate, keep up the good work 👍

[@manybikes]

Yes Sir! Now that I have worn out 3 sets of XT+ tires... in three different combinations I have a lot to speak of. Last year I did launch my 2k mile review of the Mitas XT+ front and rear. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fKuQcqmfqbF6jMk But... the Comprehensive multiple set review on big bikes and little bikes is forthcoming. Stay tuned!

[@JimGoryeb]

Will there be any clearance issue with the Tuareg low front fender?

[@manybikes]

It's unconfirmed on your T7 thus far, but I don't foresee it being an issue.

[@VITTELADVENTURE]

amazing review, thanks a lot! iscThe rally pro is same good as the xt + standard on road and twisty?

[@manybikes]

The Rally Pro is tube type only and it is much stickier than the standard XT+. The knobs are super flexible and that took a minute to get used to... they move more and track groves more... but they HOOK UP really really good. MUCH better in the wet too.

[@VITTELADVENTURE]

@ ok thanks. So the pro wear twice quicker than the xt+ you think? The rally pro doesn’t exist in 90-100 if iam right

[@manybikes]

Correct and correct. It is wearing quick, but it is AWESOME! Only available in a 90/90-21.

[@ryank1651]

Would love to hear if this 90/100 front will clear the stock low fender on the Yamaha T7

Hey Kyle , great video ! Did Mitas change this tire from when it was the E-09 ? Because my girlfriend had them front and back on a Tiger 800 and the were very unstable on tarmac ? Second question , Are they more stable than the Motoz RalZ , on tarmac again ? Because we all know that they are both great in the dirt , but the compromise is huge . Thanks !

Yes, they did change a few things in both the structure and the rubber compound. I am on my 4th one and like them a lot

Hi Kyle, I had two MITAS E-07 installed in the front of my 2018 1290 SAR and both had leaking air from the bead. Any issues like these on the new ones?

Whats your recommendation for a rear to run with the mitas enduro xt standard front. I'm shooting for maybe a Motoz adventure for a good 50/50 combo

If you are not concerned about mileage and 4k for a rear is good enough the RallZ rear is AMAZING to pair with the XT+ front. The Adventure would be my #2 choice and the GPS third.

[@Romenet310]

How many miles might we expect on the Adventure? Also, do you have a secondary to option to the Mitas up front? The reason I ask is I don’t change my own tires and I wouldn’t be reversing the tire.
