A note on tire compounds.

Look what you caused with just a little good information. Three pages and growing..................

But it is a "higher performance Kenda" tire on the '14's. Those three words look odd together.

Even more odd would be "High Performance, Kenda, Spyder RT"....haha

This thread may have more TRACTION than either of the Kenda rubber compounds!

I was just making a point that tires can last longer... a GoldWing weighs in at 650lbs... and only has 2 - TWO tires... and I got over 30,000 miles on Bridgestone tires on more than one set.. my point in case you don't comprehend... someone can make better tires that last and still provide good traction..

what I want them to do... ??? you ask.. ? ... I think BRP should make some sort of adjustment for on a tire that does not last 10,000 miles... they chose a 2 ply $180 tire .. gee whiz... other tires that are 4 ply cost less than half the cost of what BRP chose to install on these machines.. they knew full well how much these Spyders weigh and how much torque these machines make.. so they dropped the ball.. and its costing the buyers for their mistakes..
they screwed up ... and we get to foot the bill...

I think you're making a lot of suppositions here.

He is also underestimating the weight of a Goldwing by about 200 pounds. I must ride more aggressively than Orange Spyder Man because I have owned Goldwings for 15 years and 100,000 miles and I never got more than 10,000 miles out of a set of tires.
