Sorry to here about your crash. Hope you heal soon
and the bike can be repaired.
Not trying to rub salt in the wounds but if you had been
using two rim locks on each rim with the D606 tires you
would not have laid her down and may not even have
noticed the tire was out of air.

Gonna slap some Cheng Shin C858 tires on the KLR. What's the best place to
get'em? Locally they want to rape me!
Swmototires don't seem to carry them.
The K750's are a bit disappointing, but that could be riding style. The rear
only got 6000 miles on it and I'm at the wear bars, the front has the same
and is pretty cupped, but has rubber left. I'll just turn it the other way
and get another 2000 from it methinks.

tires unlimited.
Let us know how easy they are to put on.
My rear tire was the most difficult change I've ever done.
They're pretty good tires, though. Aggressive knobs.
They have a tendency to "wander" on grooved pavement.
Mine looks like I'll get maybe 3,000 miles out of it.
I'm not sure if I'll get them again. Maybe.
