Go to Kendas web sight and they have all the info you need. I am using ITP HD,s now and will switch to Kendas soon because the Hd,s are a rough ride on the pavement. They vibrate and shake like crazy on the road, in the dirt no problem. But where we ride we have to hit the pavement for 30 to 40 miles on occasion and i want to try somthing else to see if I can get a smoother ride. The ITP HD,s have worn like iron for us with only one flat for two Raptors in 3 years.

mine are fine on the road ???

only complaint is heavy

Yep the are heavy as a mofu. But strong. On the OTHER forum there was a big disscussion on the HD,s and pavement and vibration. I love the tires just hate the bouncing around on the road. Glad yours are working out OK are they new maybe they made some changes. I ran into the owner of I-10 Yamaha in Baja and he said they had some complaints about the HD,s and felt it had somthing to do with the seam lamination?? I do not know but I would prefer to stay with a proven tire if the problem is solved as they are tough as nails.

I have OMF beadlocks and rode a rear HD flat for about 30 miles in Baja. Did not want to repair it until I got to a store that sold beer!!!!!!!! 3 beers a couple plugs and we were on our way with no damage to the tire.

now thats what i like to hear :clap:

omf beadlocks and hd's musta been a heavy ass combo ???

fire raptor

Yea but strong!!!!! Baja beating strong. Baja is like a animal just waiting to eat you. You gotta stay at the top of the food chain Strong quads are usually heavy quads when it comes to desert riding.

I'll say it again kenda XCR's are a great and cheap all around tire. I am more than satisfied with mine. :thumbs:

I was thinking about some HD's, I know they are heavy but tires don't last long  on the Raptor.  To much tire spin . . .

i was lookin at hds but kenda is just the right price for me
