europeans and their dual sports (Street machines with knobby tires) that bike reminds me of the BMW 1200 it has big knobby tires on it as well.

For that much $$ you could get one of these and get plenty of change. Better by far in every situation.

You like?
Here are some recent ones of stages 1, 2 and 3 of the Australasian safari, currently underway in the outback of Western Australia. Race finishes this WE after approx' 3500 km of dirt.











This is a shot of Ben Grabham (number 1 plate says it all,) pushing 170 kmh. This is what fast looks like.

Agreed. I'm no Depres or Carmichael but atleast I make it home every time with my bike, my body and health in some what of the same shape as before I left to go riding.....sometimes

Hello,

The tires in that photo are MOTOZ - an Austrailian tire. They were great! They are just now becoming available in the US.

You came to the right place. We are the exclusive importer of Motoz and are in the process of setting up distributors and dealers in the US and Canada. We are also in the process of setting up www.motoz.us . ( also visit www.motoz.com.au )

We do have some tires that would be a perfect fit for your KLX. I would go with the Tractionator Series because they grip and last the longest. We have 3 choices in this series though. The Enduro I/T, Desert H/T, and XCircuit I-H/T. ( I ride a WR450 and have over 1500 miles on my XCircuit ) I have attached a catalog for more info.
