Greetings all,
Long time since I've been on here.
I'm trying to order a Kenda Canine rear tire for my 2018 RTL but it seems to be backordered everywhere I look.
Dose anyone have a source where I may purchase one?
Thank you in advance
Sincerely
Lewis Seifried

Well this interesting .... Kenda tires for Spyders are ONLY sold through the Dealer network ( this was confirmed by a member here who has a tire dealership and KENDA wouldn't sell Him Spyder tires :lecturef_smilie: ) ..... So this makes me think the Kanine's arn't CERTIFIED by BRP for Spyder use .......... Does anyone here who owns the Kanine's know if " FOR SPECIAL MTC. USE ONLY " IS EMBOSSED ON THE SIDEWALL like the regular Kenda Spyder tires are ????? ..... thinks .... Mike :thumbup:

Look it up. This is what I found when I did. https://powersports.kendatire.com/en-us/find-a-tire/motorcyclescooter/street/kanine/

So far I can’t find anyplace that has them in stock. I’ve been told early summer.
 
Why would you want a Kenda when the are far superior car tires out there for way less $$?

My Kenda Kanine has it embossed on the sidewall.
'For Special Motorcycle Use Only'. I got the tire last May. I purchased it from the Spyder Dealer and they installed it.
They will not install anything else. .....:gaah:

Thanks for the info :thumbup::thumbup:.......... Mike :ohyea:
 
Look it up -:hun: .... maybe " Lou " should look it up, I would never buy either tire ..... Mike :thumbup:

Lou did look it up, They are 4 ply not the crap 2 ply of stock and they also state that it is the ONLY aftermarket tire approved by Can Am....What did you look up?

I checked the specs for the " Kanine tire " right after it was introduced. .... It didn't have " 4 " plys at that time, the specs were the same as the Reg. Kenda's. So if it has " 4 " plys Now, they changed the carcass specs. ..... Mike :thumbup:
 
Kenda Kanine K20

:chat:...I have looked at My Kenda Kanine and it only shows the tread as 3 ply. The sidewall is only a one
ply. This is a October 2020 made rear tire.

This is on my Spyder. ......:lecturef_smilie:

Apparently Kenda tires are distributed in the US by Tucker (tucker.com). Perhaps a call to your local Tucker dealer might help you find, or at least be able to order or transfer, the tires you need.

Tucker has hundreds of dealers U.S. wide so somebody may have the ability to order them from one of the Tucker distribution points. The tucker.com website has a pretty good dealer locator page and I see there's about 5 or 6 Tucker dealers in the greater bay area, so one of them might be able to help.

Or things might be as bad as one could fear and nobody has them.
 
Has anybody got a recently removed late model tyre. Perhaps they could cut it with a hacksaw or something and have a look at it end on. Then post the images. Easy enough to see just how many plys are there I reckon. 1 ply or a bunch more. I will cut mine when its stuffed but it will be a while. My new to me 2017 F3 came with new tyres and im far too thrifty to chuck them as so far they seem to be doing the job.
 
:yikes:...Oh ! please don't wait .... I'm sure everyone here Needs to know this valuable bit of information :roflblack::roflblack::roflblack: ..... JMHO .... Mike :thumbup:


Up to a few days ago you had no idea of how many plys may or may not be in the modern up-specked tyre.
Been banging on at every opportunity how crap they were. Possibly true the last time you had any correct information.

They seem to have redesigned them in later times, haven't they??
Some say 1, some say4 , some have said 3 and 1 on the side I have seen lately.

Hence my question.

Ok time to settle down with the sarcasm and swearing. Discuss the tire don’t make it personal.
