    The K60's have a good reputation, I'm fitting these to my own Enfield when the standard tyres have worn out .

      Yes perfect timing for the ABR festival.. looks like it’s going to be a good turnout this year. Keep your eyes peeled for the Nomdic knights 450 bike, failing that il be at the bar 🍺 🏍️💨💨💨💨

    Hi Simon, I'm really enjoying your videos. Is it possible to get a review of pillion use from both the rider and pillion perspective? I ride two up with my wife a lot. Obviously I do nothing crazy with her on the bike, I just want to know if it's good and comfortable enough for general use with my pillion.

      That’s good to know and the Germans have a good reputation for making good quality tyres 👍

  • @potholetheband6475
    @potholetheband6475 Před 7 dny +2

    Beware those K60's on cold wet roads. I had a set on my XT600 and the front went under me on a white line on a damp March day. The reason they last a long time is that the rubber is a very hard compound - low grip!

    • @thatbikersimon
      @thatbikersimon  Před 7 dny +2

      I think some of the tread patterns are different on different sizes, but il keep an eye on it for sure 👍

    • @thatbikersimon
      @thatbikersimon  Před 8 dny +1

      Well Alan, I’m hoping to get a ride on one myself at the ABR and I’m sure there will be a good amount of people wanting to do the same. It’s a great contender against the Himi 450 but only time will tell. Stay tuned 👍

    Do the tyre company do the tubeless tyres 50/50, how are the tyres holding up at ABR?
    Great video 👍

    • @thatbikersimon
      @thatbikersimon  Před 4 dny +1

      Yes these are also tubeless, I’ve just finished the weekend of riding and got some video to edit so hopefully il have them up soon. Yes I’m happy with the tyres. Stay tune 👍

    • @thatbikersimon
      @thatbikersimon  Před 4 dny +1

      The bike is a Kaza brown buddy and they didn’t check the valves on this service. I’m not sure when they will need doing

    Did they check the "Lenkkopflager" tithening?
    A well known Senior Driver and Top Mechanik in Germany has found out it on his new Himi.
    The "Lenkkopflager" is fastend a bit to tight. Old RE Problem.
