I'm 65 and have used all kinds of tires over the years on road and dual purpose bikes and the Kenda's are some of the worst I've ever used,except the bridgestone 020s on my Guzzi,Pirelli s on the way. I expect this will stir a hornets nest of indignation so have at it,It's just my 2cnts and and keep it civil please,more money for sure but Continental TKC s and the MIfO's but your wallet doe's suffer.

They did honor the $20.99 price although it took them a few minutes to find it in the catalog. They also threw in the web special of free shipping although I had to pay a $15 sur charge for the shipping weight. $107 for 4 new tires. For that Price I can easily forgive the little side wiggle thing they do while I commute to work. --- In DSN_KLR650@yahoogroups.com, "kjedick" kjedick@... wrote: > > I just purchased the Kenda K270 at JC Whitney for $20.99 dollars apiece. > Originally, they were going to charge me the web price of $57.00 > dollars, but they honored the JC Whitney Motorcycle catalog price after > I give them the page and part numbers.

retires again!misspelling.
MIFOs,Robert It's whats called a misspelling,course you know that already and i have one to put on the rear a Mefo that is,but i just put a new TKC on the front and have a TKC for the rear which came with the bike so when there done i will buy a MEFO front and I'll be good to go.
As you say it seems that a lot of people over this side of the pond don't know about them which is a shame because they are probably the best tire around for all conditions and ware,i suppose the deciding factor for a lot of people is price and there's nothing wrong with that,but if you can afford either one of these there's no comparison and like i said you get what you pay for.
