• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Dual sport tire suggestions for 2010 te310???

When doing dirtbike and/or DOT tires searches, some tires just don't come up, you have to search for the specific tire apparently. Some sites seem to carry the fronts but not the rears, which could be found at other sites...
 
The AC10 and K760 combo might work well for you, then!

Which Karoo did your bike come with? I think there are a few varieties...
 
MCE-Karoo rear and MCE-Karoo2 front.

Kyle you don't like the the rear AC-10?

Here's a link to a local shop that sells some house brand tires, Magnum EX/SX, that don't look bad www.dirt-deals.com/magnum-tires
 
My 2012 TE310 came with Karoo 2's. They sucked off road so I promptly removed them. I got $75 for them. Some knuckle head put a 140/80 rear on mine from the factory. I run a 120 or 110 now. The bike turns much better now.

You will like any of these tires we're talking about quite a bit more than the Karoos, that's for sure.

The AC10 rear works fine, but it doesn't last very long for me. The K760 lasts at least twice as long, and hooks up about as well, so I just use that. I don't really like the K760 front though, so that is why I run the AC10 (or a Kenda Washougal, or something else) in the front.
 
No. Definitely not. Especially in the front. I do not know of a DOT front knobby that is comparably to a good off-road knobby. I know of plenty that are decent (AC10, Enduro Comp), but none that are "good."

All of Kenda's MX fronts are DOT. I ran a Millville front on my dual sport bike and it worked great everywhere.

Interesting. I have seen a DOT stamp of some sort on my Washougal, but it was unclear if it meant "street legal" or some other kind of specification.
