Finally got my maxxis suoermaxx
 
As the title states I finally received my tyres from 2wheeljunkie 10 weeks after ordering. sad but I think they look the part just sitting in my living room, anyway the guys at 2wheel were good at keeping me updated as the tyres were out of stock and did offer alternatives but i really wanted the maxxis tyres, guess what though, ground is covered in flippin snow aaarrrggghhh.
on a plus note I did get a free smart charger and a beanie hat for my patience. roll on the dry roads.

bigTrev 20-12-11 14:51

been thinking of putting a set on the bandit, they look the part anyway, be interested to hear how they perform. thanks

Looking at these too, but may be the touring which is slightly more cut for wet stuff, not that I ride in the wet, but it's nice to have some grip if you get caught out
I await your up dates ;)

ive done dry track day on these tyres and they were well good .Rode many miles on wet rds and again very good . . Hope u enjoy them ,dont listern to anyone who says there crap 9 times out of 10 they have never ridden on them http://www.xt660.com/images/icons/icon7.gif http://www.xt660.com/images/icons/icon14.gif .

The bike came with one on the back, and a Diablo on the front, but they are on limit now and need changing, how have you found they are for squaring ?
Both my mx bike and quad use maxxis tyres and they are ok on them,

1 quick spin and I reckon they will be amazing come the decent weather. scrubbing in on dry but salted roads they felt ok just the usual nervy new tyre feeling so far will update when back out again but oh boy it is cold out on a bike up here.

johnno 06-02-12 13:03

I had no trouble with squaring off and used them on a GSXR 750K5 and a moto guzzi griso . I had no trouble getting heat into them quick but i note from your picture that you have ZR instead of H rated tyres ,nothing to worry about but they will take awhile to heat up in cold weather dued to the power of 660 .
Im thinking of putting maxxis on my KTM but going for the latest ones .Ithink there called Diamonds .

collydug 25-04-12 21:23

the results are in
 
I cannot recommend these tyres enough, they are stunning. Only about 2mm strip left at edge of tyres now, cannot rate tyre life but then again I don't really worry about that. Happy days indeed on my XTX
