    Like johnrg said . Really 15 f and 14 r. Is safer and smarter then what I run. I'm a slight bit of a gambler as if racing or even trail riding I want every slight edge I can get. Lot less chance of a flat with those numbers! If I manage to save some extra ching and actually like his 15 tc 250 I may pop for a complete spare wheel assembly with foam.inserts installed and just use those on race day.

    Honda, Kawasaki, KTM, Beta, Husky... I have never seen a world wide competition with such a diversity of riders, all utilize the same front tire.

    How is the flickability with the wider tire? Do you feel like the width of the tire slows the steering down? I can definitely see the advantages in the desert but i am wondering about the advantages in tight, flowy single track...

    I did noticed this slowed the front down very slightly but still my favorite front tire ever and all I ride is tight technical.

    I also know that my all new suspension plays a apart in this as well but we have a couple of known sections with knife edge rocks embedded that you have to be really careful when you hit them... the GT216AA with michelin mousse went over with zero drama, mousses make hits feel "flat"/dead, but this is beyond that with minimal pre hit suspension unloading, in other words just slammed into the thing. For tube guys its a tube pinching bastard rock.

    Do not disconnect your stabilizer, just set it so that there is no resistance except the high speed.

    i never turn it up more than 1.5. rarely did i ever go above 2 only in Nat H&H on my TXC450 did it ever see 3 and mostly just 2 even for that.
    I think I may need to pop it off anyway to figure out the binding to the left side. to make sure that it is the stabilizer and not the bearing or something else.

    One thing is for certain I am hoping this tc does not feel nervous at speed cause it will be down the road quick. I'm used to Italian husky that are like a gyroscope the faster you go the less chance you have of crashing. I want a bike I can trust at high-speed. I do like the fact the beta gas gas ktm-husky have not went aluminum frame yet. Offers more flex. It seems like robertacchio has had to spend lots of time trying to get that bike dialed. He must be a perfectionist! I dial my bike for akeley Minnesota (they have had national enduros there) if my bike works there well it will work most anywhere.. then I never touch the clickers again anywhere. I need a front end that sticks . We shall see! The 13 sx 250 KTM I rode felt pretty good but I was in no high speed stuff. If it won't slice and dice like and xlite chassis I won't have it. We shall see. Regardless it sounds like his bike is setup to rail and for sure in his hands!
