I wanted to try one of those Kings tires when my next Scorp AT was shot. I put the 5.10-18 on and this is how it looks.

It is a tad thin for this rim, but otherwise looks good. We'll see how long it lasts come this summer. Kinda of an in between TKC and Scorp tire.

This is where I'm at now, Not sure how long the decals will work on these tanks, we'll see.

Hopefully this will help w/ car drivers seeing me.

This weekend I'll try and get some shots out in the snow. Once the rear panels get done in white and blue it should look a little more complete.

That's all the mods until after I get back from Mexico. I'll report on what worked and what did not.

No, I was afraid I'd freeze to the ground, it was -2F out, but the sun felt so good.

Those are still the stock rear panels. Maybe Feb-March sometime I'll get it done. Still waiting for some plastics from KTM to ship.

We now have another 8" of snow here, should be interesting again this weekend. I was surprised how well the rear Kings tire worked. Some of those hills in the woods are steep and it clawed right up them, the Rekluse was a big help too.

cjracer thanks for sharing the info and for the inspiration. I like the switch mod. Can I get your permission to steal it?

Go ahead, it wasn't my idea originally.

Free for the taking.

We got back from Mexico tonight. It was a great two weeks. The 950 worked great, the Rekluse update was unbelievable. Not one issue riding two up w/ luggage in Copper Canyon. It saw a lot of off road mountain use and hard work, never failed to impress. More pics and bike modification pros and cons coming soon.

I was going south to get out of the snow.

NO tire spin w/ good throttle control and a Rekluse. -more later.

By the way where did you get your clutch cover?
Is it glass-window or just molded (make believe)?
Or is it home-brew, made in CJ?
If so how much?
If not where, how much?

Thanks

I noticed these tracks weren't made by the Kings tires. Did you take them off?
