in the beginning they were good. As they wore they did get dangerous. I changed it out before it completely wore out. When it was wet, i was skating.

I run Shinko 705s on my DR650 (a very similar tire) and LOVE them. They stick like a sportbike tire, are better on dirt than you'd think, and I got 5000 miles out of my last rear tire (the front is only half worn so it's in the garage as a spare). They're also great in the rain, since I commute on that bike.
The only Kendas that I like (so far) are the Trackmaster II's on my KLX. The'yre proving to be a better dirt tire than the D606's I have for my DR650 (on a spare set of wheels). I had tried the K270 last year and hated them so bad I pulled them off at 100 miles. The front felt nervous and the rear always felt like it was flat, even though it wasn't.
