Shinko 244 vs Kenda K270 Low Budget 50/50 Dual Sport Tire Comparison

Shinko 244 and Kenda K270 dual sport tires provide two of the very best low budget 50/50 dual sport tire options out there. I've used them both on my lightweight Yamaha XT225 and in this rather rambling video I talk about the pros and cons of 50/50 tires and what I think of the 244 and the K270, specifically. Let me know your thoughts on these tires if you've tried them. Thanks! If you’ve enjoyed this video I hope you’ll give it a “like” and will consider hitting that subscribe button!

This channel is for motorcycle riders, mechanics, and enthusiasts who enjoy the simple joys of motorcycling, from dual sport riding to fixing up old bikes on a budget. My videos also consider the perspective of short motorcycle riders (when it’s helpful and relevant) in choosing and modifying bikes and equipment. I’ve been hooked on motorcycles since 1975 when, at the age of 11, my dad brought home a shiny new Suzuki TM75 for me and a Suzuki TC185 for himself so that we could trail ride together in the hills of West Virginia. Since then I’ve worked as a mechanic, owned countless bikes, and even worked in the motorcycle industry for a number of years as a photographer and journalist. Now I do mainly video production and enjoy nothing more than making and sharing these motorcycle videos on YouTube. Thanks again for watching. Ride safe! jimmytmoto
