Post subject:  Road Legal Tyre Choices

What choices of Road Legal Tyres do we trail riders currently have.

I have made a start of a list, please copy and add any tyre choice that you know of that is 'Road Legal'. Please do not include Enduro and Motorcross Tyres that are NOT Road legal.

Are manufacturers obliged to supply bikes with road legal tyres when they sell them with an "On the road" price?

If so KTM now supply their bikes with Metzeler 6 Days Extreme tyres - I suppose they are road leagl?

Post subject:  Question about your 400 Mag

Hi Mag,
I see you have a 2009 400. I am a member of the Cambs group and have a 03 200. I am teetering on investing in a new 400. Can you give me you opinion on how you find yours? In particular how plush is the front suspension? My older 200 has probably great race suspension but is completely unable to handle square edges and jars back up the bars. (Too hard for my age now) Is this ok on the 400? Have you ridden a crf or WRF does it compare on plush suspension? or close?
Absolutely love the KTM`s but dont think i can handle a "solid" front end.
Any opinion much appreciated
cheers
