Lonewolf121 Seattle,  WA Best tire for me I commute 165 miles everyday on a dual sport. This tire is amazing on wet and dry roads, rails the corners and is very smooth. When I go off roading this tire is surprisingly grippy, even swapped them once for knobbies; but found the Gripsters to feel better. I have owned two sets now, the last set lasted 20,000 miles.

Steve Richmond,  CA Avon Gripsters on my KLR 650 I read all kinds of reviews/forums before deciding to go with the Gripsters. Haven’t been off-road with them yet as most of my riding is street/twisties. They stick much better than the stock K70's. Very happy with them!

Bob Montagne Little Falls,  NJ My second "Gripster" I put front and rear "Gripsters" on my KLR650. I got 16,000 miles out of the rear tire, and I still have plenty left on the front. Considering I only got 6,000 miles out of my last rear tire, I'm quite happy. I just replaced my rear with another gripster, and didn't even consider using anything else. This tire is great on the road, and pretty good off road. If you have serious mud, you'll need a knobby. In fact muddy traction is pretty bad. I probably have about 1,000 miles off road, so having good road performance is more important than off road for me, and I suspect most riders.

AD Vaughn,  WA Gripster After One Month Mounted on a 2008 KLR 650. Only had the rear on for 600 miles, but so far so good. I do like the grip on highway and wet surfaces. Holds up ok in loose gravel, though it wanders a bit compared to the previous stock tire. Went on without any real trouble. Durability rating is lower because I've only had it a month and I must choose a rating.

Lee Dunn Bradford,  OH Great Tire For The Dual Sport Bike !! This is my second Avon Gripster AM24 on the rear of my '08 KLR. The stock tire was gone at 2500 miles. The Gripster I just took off had 7500 miles on it. These are a decent tire in the wet, excellent ride dry !! The Gripster on the front is about at 50% tread with minute weather checking !! Give 'em a try !!

jack daytona beach,  FL best tires On my 3rd klr 650, I have always ran the d606tires. Wow what a difference. Should have tried these tires sooner. Had them out for a good test run this weekend. Excellent on road tracking and traction. Hit some mud and they do pretty well. No problems in sand. Trail riding is good. Hope they get good mileage. Strange that the front tire is mounted in reverse of rear tire. Must be a traction thing...

William Tomball,  TX Great tires I rode a set of Gripsters all over Copper Canyon and then down to the Guat border. They are great in the twisties and on non-paved roads. (Mud is another matter.) I got over 10k miles on my rear and the front tire about 14k miles

Ed Flynn Carlsbad,  NM Nice transition from the D606's After riding with a more dirt oriented tire for the past two years, this is a nice smooth ride. I haven’t taken them off road to any extreme so I do not feel confident to make note. If I can get 7k out of them it will be a good tire. Note: these tires were the first ones I have ever had problems seating the bead. That could be a good thing - nice tight fit.

Rich Callahan,  FL They don't like mud I bought a matched set for my KLR650. I ride 5 out 7 days a week to work. I live in the country so my ride involves dirt roads. On dry days they handle the dirt good. It's a fun ride. They are smooth and grip the paved roads good. Mud is a whole different story. On muddy roads (not too muddy for cars) they are spooky. They are all over the place. Like riding on ice. Our roads are not clay either mostly sand. Haven't had them long enough to tell how long they will last. I would buy them again.
