This tyre excels in providing stable cornering and consistent braking control, making it an ideal choice for riders tackling terrain ranging from loose dirt to hard-pack surfaces.

No, this tyre is marked as NHS (Not for Highway Service) and is intended exclusively for closed-course motocross competition.
The III features an updated tread design and the Advanced Apex sidewall for improved lateral response and carcass stiffness compared to its predecessor.
The K7102F is specifically designed as a front tyre.
It is a versatile tyre that performs well across a spectrum of terrains, ranging from loose dirt to hard-packed surfaces.
No, this is a single tyre listing and does not include an inner tube.
Check your tyre pressure; the stiffness of the Advanced Apex sidewall means it is sensitive to pressure changes. Adjust by 1-2 PSI to find the sweet spot for your weight and track conditions.
Due to the advanced carcass design, ensure you are using plenty of tyre lubricant and verify the beads are fully pushed into the drop-center of the rim to provide enough slack.
Proper installation is vital for optimal performance. Because the K7102 features an Advanced Apex sidewall, it is stiffer than standard rubber; use appropriate tyre levers and lubrication during mounting to avoid pinching the tube. Always ensure the tyre is seated correctly on the rim and check air pressure before each ride to match the specific track surface—lower pressures may be used in loose sand, while higher pressures are recommended for hard-pack to protect the rim. Clean the tyre with water only; avoid harsh chemicals or tyre dressings that may compromise the rubber compound. As an NHS (Not for Highway Service) tyre, it should only be used on closed-course motocross circuits.
