    First adventure and Bucket List item of the new year......at 12:01 the safety ropes holding my sled were let go resulting in a full speed ride down the Mt. Battie State Park road.:eek1 Minor injuries including frostbite from lying face down in the snow waiting for friends to catch up to pick me up.:clap:clap

    Awesome!!!
    Happy New Year Everyone.

    With the amount of ice and hard pack snow on my local roads and my god given ability to fall off my bikes I have decided against a ride today...

    They are a little spendy but has anyone ever tried or have any thoughts on these..Aerostitch self tapping carbide tipped studs

    Inmate Lobolator is using the #1200 stud from Grip Studs on a KLX. I'm pretty sure the Aerostich studs are from Grip Studs, but I don't know how the part numbers cross reference.

    Looks like the low profile A from aerostitch is about the same...price is about the same as well. Looks like about $250 and a set of tires..

    I have used both the Grip studs and the Aereostich ones on my DR650 in the past. I have found that the best combination was the Aerostich ones on the rear tire (on a Kenda270) and the Grip ones on the front (Kenda Trackmaster). I used a total of more or less 200 studs. The grip and the traction on ice and hard pack snow is unbelievable. I did however keep pushing them until eventually I lost control of the front tire on a iced up dirt roads and I fell. This year I have not decided if to install them or not. I suppose it depends on how long the winter is going to be and how much I need a ride before everything starts too melt...
