Hello Everyone,
I've got a 2005 CRF250R, bone stock apart from a suspension re-valve done by the previous owner. I have had the bike for a little over a month now and been out on the trails a few times. I've noticed the tires suck and are first on my list to replace. Any recommendations for Colorado mountains/Utah? If you have a recommendation please let me know why you prefer that tire over others. I've been really looking into the Kenda Parker DT. Would I benefit from a size up (if it will fit)?
Secondly, the gas tank is small. I now there are some extended range options but I have had trouble finding them. How much of an increase in tank size can I feasibly get? My preferred riding style is enduro/technical riding. I know I have a race bike and it's not ideal for what I'm trying to make it do and I accept the short comings. I'm just trying to make it a little more trail friendly.
Any other common upgrades for these bikes?
Cheers,
Andy
