[@nitroxido]

caraca, não achei que ia unir o útil ao agradável. MOTO + INGLES parabéns pelo canal amigo! I didn't think I was going to combine the useful with the pleasant. "MOTO + INGLES" congratulations my friend!

[@nitroxido]

the best place to replace our tires. Varella. when you go back there send regards to Caio

[@MrLuk78]

obrigado pelo comentário! a varella tem conseguido ter preços muito bons por aqui e tem uma equipe top na montagem. Felicidades !

[@mothom3822]

Merci pour votre avis pertinent et bonne route✌👍

[@MrLuk78]

thanks for your comment!

I think this video is about the Dakar version , because the regular E-07+ is not to bad in wet condition and is average to install . I totally agree that de Dakar is one of the hardest tire to mount and that is to hard for wet weather on tarmac .

[@MrLuk78]

It could be. Here in Brazil they they show dakar on the tyre but there are shops that still advertise as eo7 plus dakar. I believe they removed the dakar from the specifications. Here they sell e07 and e07 plus, which is the one i find a pain to break the bead. The hardest i've tried and close the impossible depending on the tools you have at hand. best regards

[@hondaryder3779]

Sounds like the Dakar, alright.🇳🇱 NL

[@jonay9221]

Does sound like the Dakar version - I've run E07+ and it was good off road and on road at speed (no shake) and no problem on road in wet

[@Alex-if3sr]

When i first bought my africa twim it had these tyres on. I wanted to change them as on road it was causing steering shake. It took me over 3 hours to do it per a wheel. I cant imahe ever doing this out on the road. Just to break the bead, i had to get a long metal pole, lay it on thw side and jump on it as hard as i could.

[@MrLuk78]

Thanks for your comment. The bead is such a pain. If it helps, I have a video on the channel in which I changed myself the mitas and balanced the tyre. best regards!

[@alexandrexavier]

I am thinking about that tyre or the Karoo 4. I’m gonna buy at varella too.

[@MrLuk78]

Never tried karoo 4. Karoo 3 was one of the best tires I've tried, mainly considering the price mileage ratio. as it was made in Brazil, it was cheaper. Karoo 4 almost doubled the price. Nowadays it costs exactly the same as mitas but it lasts at least 2,5 times less.

[@MrLuk78]

Varela tem bons preços. ha duas semanas comprei na pneu store um outro mitas, que eu mesmo troquei. semana que vem vou postar o vídeo. paguei 950 no mitas e07. se vc precisar de troca , varella é o melhor e mais em conta.

[@carvalhonj]

Se os pontos negativos que vc mencionou te levasse para um outro pneu, qual seria?

[@MrLuk78]

olá. Não há pneu perfeito. Cada pneu tem alguma qualidade que se sobressai em uma determinada situação. Dito isso, como alternativa, eu particularmente gosto muito do metzeler karoo 3. Mais fácil de trocar e melhor grip na areia. Mas hoje está com péssimo custo benefício, pois desgasta muito rápidamente e o vendem o karoo 4 que é 100% importado, com imposto nas alturas. Se fosse em uma viagem com muito asfalto e nenhum terreno arenoso, um bom pneu é o metzeler tourance. Um bom custo benefício e boa durabilidade. Enfim, escolher o pneu certo não é fácil. Eu gosto do mitas e07 plus principalmente pela durabilidade e performance em solo arenoso. Isso pesa muito para mim pois faço viagens muito longas e sempre com trechos que demandam um pneu com boa aderência na areia. espero ter ajudado

[@carvalhonj]

@@MrLuk78 Com certeza, 100% ajudou, estava esperando seu retorno rsrs. Bom, baseado no que vc mencionou e no uso que pretendo fazer, fechou🤜🏼🤛🏼 Vou de mitas 07 +. Pedindo agora👍🏼 Obs. Teu ingles é mto bom👏🏼 morou fora do Brasil? abraco e muito obrigado

[@MrLuk78]

obrigado! morei há muitos anos atrás, sim. abs!

[@toddbenfield6546]

Quiet on the road! Any howling?

[@MrLuk78]

In comparison , t's a lot quieter than metzeler karooo 3, but it makes more noise than metzeler tourance, if it helps. Nevertheless, it is not annoying at all.

[@atakanobuz]

⁠​⁠@@MrLuk78me switching from 90/10 tyre, I commute 35 km on asphalt daily and after that my fingertips tingle and I found it very vibrating😢

[@MrLuk78]

​@@atakanobuzHave you tried balancing the front tyre? To be honest I haven't noticed any increase in Vibration in sets if mitas I fitted. It does increase fuel consumption just by a bit, in comparison to a more road use tyre

[@atakanobuz]

@@MrLuk78 Yes it is balanced by mechanic. Actually its my first 40/60 or 50/50 tyre trial. The most off-road tyre i can compare is scorpion rally str’s on my peugeot scooter and compared to that the front vibration on highway noticeably higher.

[@lennyk75]

Or are they dakar versions of the e07+, they have very hard sidewalls

[@MrLuk78]

the muitas e07 plus is a pain in the backside to remove from the well. Never again i'll do it.

[@bobgiggles6654]

i only got 2760km on my stock set of E07 on 890 adventure R

[@stephtraveler7378]

Its the best mid and full size adventure bike tire you can get. If you can get it. Just don't get the Dakar version. The Dakar version sidewalls have zero flex and its impossible to mount...

[@MrLuk78]

Definitely right. Such a pain to get it removed from the well and not pinch the inner tube when mounting it back

[@biker3366]

i have this tyre on ktm 690 enduro on offroad iz sucs

[@MrLuk78]

There are better offroad tyres in the market such as metzler karoo but they don't withhold more than 5000km. considering mitas e07 + is a dual purpose tyre i think it does perform relatively well offroad in all types of terrains

[@biker3366]

metzeler 6days,mitas E10,pirelli mt21,dunlop D606 are enduro tyre

[@Sirleopard666]

The pattern of the front wheel is inverted .. 👀

[@MrLuk78]

Thanks for your comment.Yes, and it should be inverted . The tread pattern in the front tyre is supposed to help the bike to maximize breaking power. the front tyre pattern should always be on the opposite of wheel turning. Best regards
