Kenda K784 Big Block Dual Sport Adventure Front Tire

I put a set of Kenda Big blocks on my Super Tenere. Initial thoughts were they were great. They were great when new. Worked well on and off the road. But after roughly 2000 miles the front tire started cupping badly. This made the tire howl at 45-60 mph. Then it started to vibrate. This tire was completely shot at 3000 miles. I should have replaced it at 2500 miles. Those last miles home from my trip were miserable. Vibrating sound bad my nose constantly itched. The back wore normal and was great. I wouldn’t recommend.

First time to ever ride on these type of 60/40 off-road tires, had them installed on my 2009 Suzuki DL650 V-Strom dual-sport bike. Was a little nervous about them at first, they just handled differently than my usual road tires, but after a few local miles, have started warming up to them. Only have less than 100-miles on them so far, but for now, would recommend them to anyone!

I ride good mix of on/off road and these tires for the price, all around do what I need them to do. Currently best bang for the buck I've tried.

Great tire. I put these on my wife's and my Africa twins wanted a bit more aggressive tire for back road touring. They took a bit more weight than the rears to get balanced but road really well with no bouncing issues on the pavement and pretty quiet considering they're knobby's! Struggled a bit in a deep sandy area but otherwise worked pretty well everywhere else. Great price and would recommend it!

Great tire for the money. I have ridden multiple tires in the 60/40 range. This is by far the best in my opinion. Very little noise and vibration. Good off road traction, and feels very confident on the street. Good value. It surprised me in the dirt and leaves how well it performs. Installed on a xr650l. 20lbs of cargo.

As far as a knobby tire for a heavy adventure bike (KTM 1190), overall (street/dirt) this tire performs well above average.

If you look at what the tire is said to do on and off the road it is great and a great value. I haven't used it in much mud but I have been quite happy with the performance of these tires. You will feel more wheel spin but they hook up. My only complaint is when you turn sort and tight you will feel slipping due to low side grip of the tire. But for the price and overall performance I will buy them again.

Love these tires. They track awesome on the road. I had the T63 on it before and what a improvement the big block makes. Decent in the dirt, better when you air them down a bit.

Just finished the AZBDR. Ran the 21 front and 150/18 rear. For me they were the perfect tire choice. AZBDR is a brutal mix of pavement, smooth rocks, sharp rocks, a wide variety of sand types, babyheads, rutted dirt, smooth dirt...well just about everything! Luckily I did not have to find out how they work in mud, snow or on wet pavement.

These tires performed flawlessly. I put 900 miles on them during the trip, with about 300 of that pavement. Wear seems normal, road behavior was fantastic, dirt behavior nice and neutral. I was running 28psi front and rear in all conditions.

Highly recommended as they worked great in everything for me.

I've used 2 sets of these tires (Yamaha Super Tenere) and have enjoyed MOST of the limited life they offer. Front tire would show considerable wear to the center row of knobs by 2000 miles and were done well before 4000 miles. Traction on-road was more than acceptable but wet pavement requires easy throttle and smooth braking/turning inputs. Dial it back when wet. Pros: inexpensive, excellent offroad traction and easy to install. Cons: very limited life, poor wet road performance and road noise (worse when the tire wears).
