Mine didn't even have 2 trips on them before I tossed them into the carport...

I know - wrong section, I'll be posting over in the "For Sale" section - I'm interested in some that are almost new and from the sounds of it, there are a few of you throwing them in the garage after one ride.

I'd be interested in take-offs too, esp a rear. I posted an ad. Thanks.

I have a set of stock tires with like 300 miles on them. I'm in CT and I'll sell them real CHEAP if anyone want's them/ I'll also post this in the correct place. Let me know.

I went from the stock Trail Wings to Dunlop D606's after the rear tire wore mostly out at 2700 miles, may have had another 300 miles left in it. The front could go another round with a new rear from the looks of it.

I'm kind of looking forward to the D606's wearing out so I can go back to the stock trail wings. I do about 50% on pavement and about 50% dirt road / trail. The stock tires took me everywhere I wanted to go and were a lot quieter and handled pavement better.

The only area I've seen my D606's out shine the stock tires is in sloppy mud. I actually crashed for the first time with the D606's on dirt. With the stock tires I'd just air down and pick my path. Just my opinion.

I have a strange observation. It seems like to me that the stock 120/80 rear tire is more aggressive than the other size tires. The 4.10 on a previous bike seemed to have loser knobs and less aggressive. I am probably talking out of my hat.

I do think that a front tire is real important. I am thinking about a not dot front tire in the future maybe with a TW302 rear. I am looking at a Cheng Chen C755 or a Pirelli MT 16 front tire. The MT 16 front tire is a motocross tire that is supposed to be DOT approved.

I got over 5,300 miles out my trailwings. I finally got tired of sliding all over the place last Sunday. The Dunlop 606s are supposed to be at my door on Tuesday.

I'm looking forward to my first ever motorcycle tire change.

TrailWings ROCK for off-road skill building. Did 3 hours of the nastiest riding ever last week. Grey mud (like grease), wet leaves over sometimes icy base, at least 200 water-filled potholes -whew! Kept checking to see if I had a flat tire, since the bike just didn't want to steer or hold a line. By the end of the run I had fallen back from mid pack to last of ten bikes, but I'm sure my skills increased 50%. If I put on some decent tires I should be un-stoppable!

* little did they realize they were unstoppable WITH the TWs *

In Arizona the daily riding diet here includes generous amounts of sand. The TW's were dreadful at first, but dropping the tire pressure down helped a lot. Will go for a 606 when these are toast. Not a favorite tire but rideable for me when deflated.

Agree a excellent tire for "off road skill building"

I've grown to hate the stock front tire. I switched back to it out of convenience and price (free!), not bad on pavement or gravel, but god I hate it in sand or mud, its like riding on ice with this thing.

I can't wait to get a real front tire again...

Yea I am really not liking my front tire right now. I am constantly looking for good replacements, but I am trying to hold out until spring because I figure that I will be mostly riding street until it warms up.
