This summer I used these on the Wyoming BDR, the mid-Atlantic BDR and a part of the north-east BDR as well. Put them on in Montana and got home to Florida with 8,200 miles on the bike and they look barely 1/2 used … Love these things!!!

[@OneOldManRiding]

Hello Tim, WOW what a trip! How was their grip on the Wyoming BRD? I used them myself for the MABDR. - Frank

[@timlubbers2884]

@@OneOldManRiding it was as good as to be expected. I have always done things and gone placed at speeds that my equipment can handle. Because I travel thousands of miles per summer I need tires that can “do it all” . These tires are very good in that respect. I never (on the WYBDR) felt like my tires left me wanting, as I know the limitations of the bike and tires I use … I have done all of the BDR’s currently published and the only one I kinda wish I had pure knobbies on was the IDBDR. That one was a bit tough. Of course, all of the west BDR’s would be a lot more fun on a 300-450 cc bike but getting there on a 300 from Florida would not work for me. Take care and hope to see you on the dirt 😎.

Good review, which i can confirm. I have riden my first set on heavily loaded R1250GSA ADV and can confirm you get an amazing mileage for a decent behaviour both on road and dry offroad conditions.8000 Miles + is realistic with average riding behaviour. I just ordered my second sets and this tyre perfomed way better than my MITAS E07+ which were finished after 4000 Miles and much louder. But just be careful on the road during the first 500 miles especially in wet conditions. They can be very slippery. Afterwards... fantastic!

⁠​⁠@@OneOldManRiding what do you mean not as tough as the trailmax? Are these not the same tires?

[@BoilerRealm]

I had a set on my R1200GS. I found them to be a bit sketchy on wet asphalt, with the 100+ ftlbs of torque making the rear end step out. Glad to have traction control. But I got over 12k miles out of the set! I have a new 390 now, and haven’t decided what I’ll replace the stock TKC70’s with when the time comes. Thanks for the video.

[@OneOldManRiding]

Hello Nathan, I just ride from the PNW to Upstate NY on a set of these on a VStrom 1000. After 5K miles, I feel the tire is better on the 390. Like you I had some slips on wet asphalt with the VStrom that has never occurred on the 390. It feels like the big bike version of the rear is harder than the 390 size. - Frank

[@pappaclutch3266]

I also find them to be sketchy on the tarmac. I won’t get them again

[@erkful]

I had them on a 1290, very sketchy in the wet they don’t like horsepower. They were that bad in the wet, I dumped them @ 6K.

[@JC-jk3kl]

I only have 24 hp on my Royal Enfield Himalayan 411 so it just tractors is way off road. All the torque is on the low end. It tractors rather than speeding it way through rough stuff like other bikes.

Hello Doc, thank you for the kind words! I put a set on the VStrom before leaving Washington. They have 5K ish miles now, and look brand new. I did find there is a minor issue, that I had read about on ADVRider with the big bike version of the tire... It slipped on a wet corner. It's was kinda funny... I am riding with Andrew and I say over coms "Corner is tighter than it looks," then "And its wet at the end." I did not bother to slow down when I told him these things... Back wheel slid a lot, I could see the pannier in my first of vision! Fortunatly the TCS kicked in and I did not panic, the bike straightened out on its own and I kept going. - Frank

My buddy has them on his BMW gs800 and he likes them so I figured I’d give them a shot. They were very slippery when I first mounted them so I’d be careful in the turns until you get them scrubbed in. They are much smoother on the road than the knobby tires that I was running. Hopefully they last a lot longer than the ones I had on there. I’m pretty sure they will

[@OneOldManRiding]

Hello Mike, despite being a HEAVY tire, they really (IMHO) handle well on the road. I did notice that in the larger size on my V-Strom 1000, the rear stepped out more than on my 390 Adventure. - Frank

Love the 705 front tire worked well in every aspect and still looks new. However my rear has worn down tremendously after 6000 miles. Has anyone tried Michelin Anakee Wild in the rear. A bit pricey at $195.00 but look awesome for the mud we seem to get here in upstate ny

[@Al.j.Vasquez]

I've been thinking this for years, the space between the logs or knobs makes a huge impact in the capabilities of a tire to be great at off road. They could have a design that works on road, but with enough space to grab the dirt.

[@OneOldManRiding]

Hello Al, it seems to be difficult to balance road VS. street. I have ridden a few tires that seem to get the balance right, but at the cost of longevity. I do not like getting under 5K on a tire! The TMM seem to be doing well in most cases. Thanks for stopping by! - Frank

@@OneOldManRiding Definitely agree, i used to equip my Versys 300 with the previous model of the Trailmax, at 130 width they designed it like a 65/35 tyre and i loved it, but true, it was like a 7.000 mile tyre and the center flattened before 4.000, great on road, ok off road, i have better expectations for this new rubber.

@pappaclutch3266 I thought they were pretty decent in the rain for a 50/50 type tire, I was running about the same pressure, maybe a bit less. We went through some pretty nasty downpours and I was riding a bit slow, not pushing it. I had the Shinko 805's on before that and they were horrible in the rain.

I look forward to your long term Motoz review for sure! - Frank PS: I pulled the Shinkos from the VStrom, put 5K on a set of TMM crossing the country (90% pavement) and they look brand new! 😁

Greetings, like your channel and will subscribe as a fellow 2023 KTM 390 rider. Have about 3,000 mi. on my bike now and looking to ditch the TKC 70's. I like most of what I've read and seen on the Trailmax Missions but hoping you can address my primary concern. These tires are really heavy. The rear tire is at least 4 lbs. heavier than AX41, E 07+, TKC 80 and Anakee Wild. That's a lot of unsprung weight... and while the 390 has some oomph it isn't an Africa Twin or 1250 GS. I know you ran the E 07's on your 390, could you notice any difference or comment on the weight effect or not. Also know you shot this video awhile ago so any tire advice is appreciated.

[@OneOldManRiding]

Hello Mike, the TMM are crazy heavy, and I absolutely noticed the weight of the front turning for a minute. However, the founded profile of the tire allows them to leave over very easily, you just notice the weight a bit bringing it back up. Not an issue IMHO as you stop thinking about the extra effort very fast. - Frank

I never really noticed an issue with the fear, it's more rounded than most aftermarket tires and rides very well on pavement. (And anything other than mud.) - Frank

Hi Frank, I just subbed your channel. I recently purchased a set of TMM, for my 2019 V Strom 1000xt Adventure. Overall I'm very happy with the tire.

Hi Frank, thank you for the review om the TMMs, I think I'll order the front now and a rear before my East coast trip. My Vee650 came with Shinko 705's, The back is still like new but the front already had a lot of cupping, and even with the air pressure bumped up they howl, vibrate and under 10-15 mpg you can feel the bump, bump of the cupping. It is getting to the point of being frustrating. These tires will fill the bill of getting me from coast to coast without a tire replacement needed along the way. 👍

I just don’t like the rear mission tire. After 19k Km I’d say they don’t really do anything well. The slip on wet roads unlike any other tire I’ve ever ridden. They even slip on dry roads after the tread is worn down just a bit. Offroad they are just OK. The side lugs are well built and dig into ruts well enough. The front tire on the other hand is a damn good tire with astonishing grip wet and dry. The front tracks well in gravel. I’m going for mitas next.

[@OneOldManRiding]

Hello Adventure Glide, I am now running these on two bikes. The 390 Adventure and the VStrom 1000. I am noticing there is a difference in the tire performance between the sizes. I have never had a slide on the 390 version. Just yesterday I was riding in forty degrees, riding a twisty mountain road. Zero issues. When I was riding the VStrom from the PNW back to NY, I was in temps as low as 34. In Yellowstone I nearly put the bike down when I was on a tight corner as the rear tire just slid to the outside of the corner. SO much that I saw my pannier in the edge of my vision! I rode the VSTrom in rain and hail many times on the trip, no issues other than the corner incident. After that I was VERY careful on corners. And I have to say I would NEVER try and corner as aggressively as I do on the 390. I have no proof, but my theory is that the larger size tires are a harder compound that does not deform and corner as well on cold roads. I know from warm days that the TMM corners very well on the VStrom. - Frank

Hello, after using them on my 390, I put a pair on my VSTrom 1000. I found the rear tire on the big bike to be downright dangerous! I am not sure what's different, but it's a very slippery tire on big bikes. - Frank
