This is the final stage at the 2009 Mt Hood Rally run by Pete Nielson (me) on my Honda XR650R. This is one of the faster stages. I used a Pirelli MT 43 Trials tire and while it worked, it tended to break loose rather suddenly. I think I will run a knobby in the future. It was a great rally and a beautiful day.

  • the pirelli mt43 isnt really the best tyre to use on a big powerful bike like your xr650 for instance. like you say they do tend to break away a little and slip and slide and if your riding on the road they just get chewed up so much. there ideal for something like a 250 or lower maybe. you might want to try the dunlop d773 or a Metzler MC5 they have a hard compound and are excellent for all round use.

  • Nice work Pete !

  • Nice job! I was the RM @ control 8, you guys where all flying...
