I put this tire on just before DW. It worked good there (sticky dirt) and has done good until the last few rides. I didn't ride from thanks giving until about a month ago.

I have tried all different kind of pressures on it. It works great on hard pack and premo dirt stuff (shortly after a rain)which is what the rides have been until the last few. Its been dry lately and likely to remain that way for a while, but I hope not. Now is realy deep sand and hard pack with loose stuff on the top of it. It does not feel that planted at all. I about ready to take it off. I realy like the rear. Any suggestions before writing this tire off. Still looks new, but I just can't seem to work through the issues with it.

My rear tire is about shot so I think thinking I might try some Michliens (starcross intermediate to loose in the front with and S-12 in the rear) or that new dunlop that is on the CRF (742??) with a 756 rear. Maybe I'll just buy the dunlops and order the optional CRF with them

Mine tends to wash on the hard bottom loose top and sandy stuff too... Although I think riding technique may be part of my issue. I am just not used to those conditions...

I'm pretty used to the conditions, and I never had that problem on the hard stuff with the dunlop 739. It sucked in the deep sand though. It gets dry like this a lot around here.
