Metzeler Tourance Next 2 - New Tyres For The KTM 1290 SAS

[@fredensminde]

I am still on the Mitas tyres. I get serious wobble at 60 (+/-5 ) km/h. But ONLY when i have the top case on. Without the top case no problems other than turning a tiny bit to the right. Looking to get these or Karoo Street in the spring. Thanks for sharing your experiences.

I've never had a problem with the top box, I suspect that's because there is a big wind break sat in front of it 😉

Are you going to ABR next year? if so what tyre will you fit for that? I had Metzlers on the XR and couldn't get on with them although I was very new to biking so maybe it was me. haha. Fasty-Rides

I certainly am, although I'll probably be taking the CRF300L again. As you'll know it gets pretty churned up and I'd recommend a full on knobbly. I saw a few bigger bikes running the Anakee Wilds, in the mud they looked like slicks 😀

@@motocrad yer i might keep off the offroad track then. hahaha Fasty

I'm on my second set of these on my GS, great all round tyre. Stick like s**t to a blanket on those fast Sunday ride outs, decent traction on the gravel roads and decent in the wet. Only criticism would be they take a little while to get up to temperature compared to something like a road 6.

Nice one, great feedback 😀 Just out of interest, what sort of miles did you get out of your first set?
