• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage.

What is the unloaded rear axle weight of a 2020 style F3L? for tires...

I'm looking at a replacement rear tire for my 20 F3L, but the weight loads are vastly different - Kumho Ecsta's 1356 pounds vs 882 on the Kenda KR20. I'm about 3 bills plus my gear, so I'm concerned about the difference. Any help/info?

Thanks in advance!
 
Weight-wise, you should be fine with any car tyre... there's no way you + the rear 1/2 of a Spyder should get anywhere near the weight of 1/4 of a car.

Having said that, the Kendas lower weight limit of 405kg shows they have a much lighter construction... which is exactly why the OEM Kenda tires and their clones, the Kanine's, wear so poorly.

My advice... avoid the Kendas, and their clones!
 
Don't over think this. As a newer member spend some time searching tire threads. More than enough for a couple hours. Spyder rims are J bead rims, like a car tire. You'll get much better wear with 'real' car tires. Kenda only says "for motorcycle only" on the sidewall because they can't support a car!
