    Those 606 tires wear funny. Almost to knife points. I'm running an Anakee Wild on the front. Wearing awesome. Good grip in gravel also. Running the Motoz Tractionator Adventure on the rear. It sings a little on pavement but has all the grip when you need it. I just got in trouble from watching this video. I took off on my adv bike for a 5 mile ride. Wife was mad as hell. I was in a very bad motorcycle crash on July 12th. Spent 20 days in the hospital. Broke 4 ribs and left collar bone along with lacerations on my liver and spleen. I ended up losing my spleen.Lost 3 liters of blood into my chest cavity. Staples just came out two days ago. My Road King is destroyed all over a sharp piece of metal on the road at 45mph. I still have my adv bike and after watching this I had to ride. Not gonna lie. I was scared the whole 5 miles.

    Flats with tubes, hate them. Once I discovered BMW's tubeless tires I need went back. Plugs work just fine and safe on front or back. Ride safe.

    I just watched your video. I am going to try to come to the next Smokies ride. I am looking for the video on the ride in Silverton, CO. I can't seem to find them. I rode most of the passes and gulches 2 years ago. Loved it. My videos are under Lamar Durden. Along with my videos from Silverton are videos of the Hatfield McCoy Buffalo Mtn ride in W Virginia.
