I just installed a 908RR rear tire & continental on the ft & all I can say is WOW!!:talk:

If you look on the website they look completely different & we were almost tempted to not take them but I am very happy I did.:clap:

The rear was hell to put on & had to be heated up with a torch:hr:to get them stretched enough to get over the rim but now that they are on they fit great.

I took them for a test run up West Harrison & can only say that this combo of tires is fantastic. I had no issues on the Chunky rocky hills & river crossings were a breeze as that front tire does not waver from its intented path at all. Going through mud I did not even notice the difference from any other terrain.

I'm not an aggressive rider (speed wise) at all so I can't vouch for the slide factor but I felt like I could definately push myself more now that I am used to them.:tup:

Here is the web link for the tires

Now that I look at the pics I can see it looks more like the 907 but it says 908 on the tire. Possibly it changed up.

Has anyone tried the 908 on a smaller, lighter bike?

The 908 is a very expensive tire for heavy bikes 400 pounds + the 906 would be better for smaller bikes.
