Has anyone tried these new tires out yet?I think they come on the factory edition KTM?When are they going to be available?
Apparently the MX32 will target soft to intermediate (sort of between the MX31 and the MX51), while the MX52 will be more intermediate towards hard pack.
I really liked the pattern on the MX32, and it looks like it could be a great tire.
The Shop
The Front 51 is garbage
Since then I've been on Pirelli. If you can, try them. You wont be disappointed. Best tyres out.
The 756 was THE tire back then. I saw they are coming stock on YZs right now when I was at the shop a couple weeks ago. I thought that was crazy
I find MX51 rears good alround tire. Fronts not great.
MX31 rear awesome in the mud, fronts good on anything but hardpack (even not too bad on hard-ish ground).
Think the MX32 front and 51 rear will be my set-up from what I've heard...
Pit Row
i actually dont think the mx51 fronts are that bad- having said that I will probably order 952s for intermediates as they are a fair bit cheaper and dont think theres much difference in peformance.
MX32
The 51 rear is great, had great luck with that.
The Dunlop guys will be at San Diego this weekend and will be introducing the new Dunlops at Milestone on Monday. The new tires should be awesome!!
I have ridden and talked with Clark quite a bit in Alabama and he told me to stay away from that 51 also. I used a 71 at a sandy track down there and worked great. I run the 31 at most tracks in Bama but definitly works better in the loam and sand of Michigan
I went backwards, and put the 31 front on. It's actually a lot more predictable.
The MX51 rear is heaven, and lasts AMAZINGLY well.
