    Word, that's what I'm running. I just wish they would last longer!!!


    Yup,

    if you are riding a track, the 756 is hard to beat. They are soft and sticky in the nice groomed dirt tracks.

    Only drawback to them is the wear.

    But hey, as long as Dunlop sponsors you, what do you care??? :shock: :lol: :lol:


    well i dont have a sponser and i cant afford a new set of tires every week i ride every day and am 13 and make all the money my self



    Dude, I ride about 3 times a week and the track I ride at is usually hard packed and even blue grooved in some corners. I've gone thru 2 tires since April, and the first one wasn't even that worn, I just switched it out because a big gash of rubber was missing from one of the knobs. How aggressive do you ride? And do you ride moto or off road? If your riding in mud a lot the tire will last a lot longer than if your riding on dirt as hard as cement.. Also, don't do burnouts!

    P.S. I'm 14 and make all my own money... :? :roll: :lol:

    i go through sport tires about every two months. and i went through 1 rear race tire in a week.
    i ride off road and track/race i race supermini and 150 class i ride every day and i need a sport tire that will grip well but will last me at least a month. i dont really ride on cemet that much just 1/5 of a mile to get the mail every day



    Your not going to find a "sport" tire that lasts for a month if you ride every day. Unless you get one made of oak or titanium, it will be worn down by the 2nd week, if you ride aggressively. If you never get wheel spin, a 756 should last a long time. Or look into the 952.
