Well, I decided to try a different rear tire. The Tusk Talon looked interesting and the price is great compared to the IRC or other premium tire brands. I'll be comparing it to my go to 220 Ride semi-gummy and IRC VE33S Gekkota rear tires. Going by my first real look at it, I don't think this tire will last nearly as long due to this tire being what I would say is a full gummy compound. That said, it looks like this thing is going to give crazy good traction. I'll be running it with Tubliss and will be starting out at 8psi. The video below shows my new go to front, the Bridgestone X31 90/100-21, at 69 hours and the IRC VE33S Gekkota at roughly 50 hours plus a quick first look at the new Tusk Talon 120/90-18 rear.
