756

I hv a new 756 rear it looks cool I tried to sell it for 150 I think . I was called basically a dick.  The 773 is new also it was supposed to be a great sand tire.   I run other old tires like the 737,756 , 990 . I think it’s fun running the tire that came on the bike my rear was a 756  another new tire but not for long on hard pack.

What size 756? How much for the 773 front?

This is probably an unpopular opinion, but I don’t like the MX34 front. For me, it is unpredictable on harder packed dirt. It breaks loose without warning and it’s not easy to regain traction after it breaks loose. It’s typically a big slide instead of the small loss of traction like I’m used to on other tires. Had this problem over several days and 2 different tracks. I never had this problem with the MX33 front.


After a couple ride days fighting this I switched to the MX82 front and now I have confidence in the front tire again. Switched all my bikes to the MX82 fronts with MX34 rears. 

Don't worry, i agree !  Was excited to get my 25 350 sx-f with the latest tires, but post a few good rides (admittedly on harder surfaces), not a big fan of the 34's, front or rear.  I know this thread is about fronts, but i found the rear steps out, under braking on angle.  Not confidence inspiring at all.

Regards fronts, i do like Bridgestone X31's for the terrain i ride, mainly harder surfaces.
