  • Good budget tire
Size: 120/70-17 F 160/60-17 R
I have a sport touring bike that I try to ride whenever the weather cooperates. It racks up a fair number of miles, a combination of highway and local roads. The Metzeler Sportecs that I'd been running were getting pretty worn, and the rear tire had just gone past the bottom of the wear bars. In other words, I was overdue for tires. I was contemplating a premium tire like Michelin, but $500+ of rubber just wasn't in the budget. I looked around for tires in the sizes that I needed and settled on the Kendas. They're listed as sport touring tires, which is mostly what I do with this bike (no track days). The reviews were good, the speed rating was high enough for my bike, and the load ratings were the same as the tires I was replacing and gave me a comfortable margin of load capacity. OK, I'm sold. The tires arrived quickly (they gave me a 5 day window for delivery, and these tires arrived on the first day). One day I came home and a big box with a pair of tires in it was waiting for me. They even sent a small bottle opener in the box. A little weird but cool. Installing them was a CHORE. The sidewalls on these tires are very stiff, and they're a little wider than the factory tires (though they're the same size as the tires that I replaced). Putting them on the wheels with tire spoons was a real fight. Use plenty of soapy water or bead lubricant, and perhaps a drop-center tool to help you if you go this way. Or just pay someone else, like I should have. Getting the beads to seat was another hurdle. I used a spray bottle with soapy water on the beads, and I think each tire needed 40 PSI to finally pop their beads into place. That's close to the maximum recommended pressure when seating beads, and they sounded like gunshots when they finally went. I don't look forward to having to change them in the future-- they're ON THERE. The tires were almost perfectly balanced as-installed. I think each one needed 1/2 oz. of weight to get it to balance. These tires are supposed to be the same size and aspect ratio as the ones I removed (according to both Amazon and the numbers on the sidewall), but they're noticeably wider just the same.. This worried me because I don't have a lot of room between the rear tire and the fender, but the tire fit with room to spare. The fatter tires look good on the bike. So how do they work? So far, brilliantly. I took the bike out for a quick spin. I was very careful because new tires can be slick and the roads were still a bit wet, but I never felt them even come close to breaking traction. I rode around town and then did some slow circles in a parking lot to scrub the sides of the tires in a bit more. Even on wet roads, these things were glued to the ground. In a corner, these tires tip in more quickly than the Metzelers that they replaced. The Metzelers were a great tire for many miles, but I'd done a lot of highway riding and they were squared off so they no longer fell into a corner quite as easily. These Kendas make the bike feel more agile than it has in a while. On the highway, these tires were butter-smooth. The balance is dead-on and there's no shake at all. No idea about noise because the exhaust is kind of loud and I wear ear plugs to ride, but I didn't notice anything unusual at all. If these tires last as long as the Metzelers did (6000 miles of my ownership, plus who knows how many with the previous owner), they'll be an outstanding value. That's a big ask-- this is a heavy, relatively powerful bike-- but so far these tires are very impressive for the price. I'll update once I have some more miles on them. UPDATE: I've ridden on these for a couple of hundred miles and really like them. The bike is easier to maneuver at slow speeds and lays down better in corners. The vibration I had with the previous Metzelers (flat spot) is gone and these are smooth on the highway. They do tend to follow grooves in the road perhaps a bit more than the Metzelers, but nothing alarming. Traction on tar "snakes" and freshly sealed asphalt is better than with the Metzelers. I haven't pushed them hard enough to find out where the limits are, but these tires feel great during everyday riding. ... show more

  • Good tires
Size: 160/60-17 R
Great tires at a great price. I can do zig zags and feel extra sticky to the road. Do well in rain as my bf took my bike home for me in a downpour the other day. Performs well at low and high speed turns, plenty of grip, bouncy stoppy grabby blah blah. Idk how durable they are bc they've been on my bike for a week. I assume they'll last a season or two with my commuter riding style. Durability. They are black and have tread and are round can you believe that omg I'm flabbergasted consider me cooked with these fine ahh tires ... show more

  • Worth a shot
Size: 140/70-17 R
I came unto this tire from a Dunlop gpr300 Bike I put it on is a Honda Cbr300r Overall the Kenda km1 has a bit more of a square profile being a "sport touring" tire and as expected it definitely does not fall into a turn quite as easily. I run the tire a couple psi higher at 33-34psi to compensate a bit for the unresponsiveness. I have had no issues with grip in rain, gravel, sand, ect. My driveway would be fun for a dirtbike or a jeep and I take my "sport" bike up and down it almost everyday with very little issue on the Kenda tire. Only time I have started to lose grip was in a roundabout banked down to the outside, I was certainly going to fast, but have no delusions, this is a touring sport tire not a supersport tire :) I did slip on a patch of silty gravel a couple days ago, but I think most street tires would have done the same. I can tell both in mounting the tire as well as riding that it is much stiffer and feels like a harder compound of rubber so im hoping I will get a decent amount of miles out of it I have put a little over 1,000 miles on the tire and it is holding up as well as you would expect. If I dont sell the bike before a new tire... ill try and update to mileage I got out of it Balanced it myself with the power of gravity and it took 3 1/4oz weights. Its not perfect, a bit of buzz in the 70mph territory. Entirely possible it would only take 2 weights if you get it more spot on. Overall.. I don't think I would really recommend it... at least for all the fast cats out there. However at this price range I think it would be hard to beat. That said I do plan on getting the matching front tire, but after that I will move on. ... show more

  • Great tires.
Size: 110/70-17 F 140/70-17 R
They arrived early and have recent production dates, no complaints concerning seller. Tires are way stickier than expected, hold the road like a hypersport tire. Will update if anything changes.
