I have a connection to Dunlop so I need to use it. I ride 75% SoCalif desert and 25% track. On my RM I liked the MaxxCross IT tires, they held up pretty well. I Have a front 742 on my CRF and HATE It, I now have a 756 rear and like it, but it sure doesn't last very long with all this torque on this terrain.

Any recommendations??

If it's got to be Dunlops I'd try the 952's then.
That's the idea with those, longer lasting knobs so why not give 'em a go ? Doug

My 952 (that lasted very long) was replaced with a 739, we'll see how it wears in comparison. The 952 without a doubt hooked up better. Not stellar but also no complaints about the 739 on the front. 756s will last about 2-3 rides for me.

I am not too familiar with the 952?
I ride logging roads and generally hard terrain... how would she hold up?
I am still on the stock 756's
thanks...

I ride very mixed terrain, the 952 will outlast the 756 5 times over.

5 hours on the 739, it is wearing ok, but compared to the 952 for the riding I do the rear tire sucks in comparison. I am going back to the 952 as soon as I can bald this one a little more.
