anybody wondering about tyres for an XTR?

I have a new pair of torences fitted to my R!
i dont realy know how good other tyres are as i have only had tourances on my R. Honestly thoyugh unless somebody can show me otherwise im sticking with them!

Off road they are awesome id done just over 200miles on them before i hit the dirt roads and green lanes! as my signature says i survived the lakes!!! so honestly i cant knock them off road!

As for on road!.......well look for yourself!! :P



Since having my tourances i have no problems getting my pegs down in most corners!! roughly 45degre angle of lean!!! :P

they stick to the road like glue! although i wouldnt be caught putting my pegs on the floor in the rain with them!!!!

10/10 for a top notch tyre!!!

haha your very much like myself with the pegs. Yea ive had the pegs down on nearly all the tyres ive had but ive a set of Avons at the moment and there is a bit of fluffyness when lent over and in the wet they really dont seem to stick very well. The fronts semi worn and the rears new but it has been scrubbed in (but maybe not fully for these tyres).

Tourance it will be next time around for me.
