rider_marc Posted April 13, 2018 My Ride Report Share Posted April 13, 2018 (edited) Just mounted an e-805 and don't like the look or how the tread lays out for what would be lean angles on pavement. ? Maybe it's nothing. Really interested in off pavement traction. I'll be real close to Slaven's next month and will see what he has for Motoz.

Administrators Eric Hall Posted April 15, 2018 Author Administrators My Rides (3) Report Share Posted April 15, 2018 I like that tire a lot for 60/40 use and the price. I did a review on those last year. But for as much dirt as I do, I really prefer the 70/20 Motoz Tractionator Adventure. I think Motoz should consider a 60/40 block knob tire too but I have no idea if they'll make one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't found the limit yet. I've pushed my E-805 really hard on the street and never even squirmed. I'm not a fan of how the tread pattern wears however - the shallower sipes in the blocks go away at some point and just leaves block "paddles" after that. I'm riding on the MotoZ Adventure Tractionators now and love them. They also have a 50/50 tire that looks a bit like the Heidenau - they have way more off-road traction and are estimated to last around 8000 miles versus the overly hard Heidenau which some claim 10,000+ miles.

PeteN95 Posted April 16, 2018 Report Share Posted April 16, 2018 I like paddles! And I have about 6k on my 805s now, probably won't make 8k, but for the price, I will probably get more of them! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want a tire that will do both and last forever. I don't ask for much do I! Well, the more aggressive tire is here! The Tubeless Motoz Tractionator Desert H/T tire has landed in the 150/70-18 rear and 90/90-21 front.

Administrators Eric Hall Posted July 27, 2018 Author Administrators My Rides (3) Report Share Posted July 27, 2018 So new tire out from our friends at Motoz USA called the "Tractionator Rallz." Here's what we know now... Available now in 150/70-18 ($207) and 90/90-21 ($108) Tubeless 80% dirt/20% street so essentially positioned between the ADV (70/30) and Desert H/T (90/10) Even MORE tread lug (16mm) than the ADV (15mm) Here's what it looks like next to the ADV 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdventureDave Posted July 27, 2018 Report Share Posted July 27, 2018 Looks great. I may have to try this out after my MotoZ ADV Tractionator wears out on the rear. Thanks for posting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me there are long road stretches between sections of dirt where its all 80+ mph speeds. Anyone have a tire issue related to speed yet? I have had issues with my tractionator front. It is wearing perfectly even but at speeds over 100mph it is scary. Any sudden movement causes the bike to go into a tank slapper. I tried varying pressure which helped a bit. Before I identified the tire as the issue I went over my suspension and installed a scott steering damper. Took the tire off and the problem was gone. Now my rear has split between the lugs of every second center lug, with about 85% tread remaining. Can't say that i'm impressed. I love the offroad manners of these tires but I'm scared what to try next. I might just go back to a tkc80. boooo MOTOZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyNuke Posted July 29, 2018 Report Share Posted July 29, 2018 I still like the Kenda Big Block, but haven't worn out my tractionators yet. They are lasting quite well. I need to ride more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeddy Posted July 29, 2018 Report Share Posted July 29, 2018 I might just buy a set of 804/805 until I can figure out what to do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Eric Hall Posted July 30, 2018 Author Administrators My Rides (3) Report Share Posted July 30, 2018 I rarely go over 70 on pavement and prefer the Tractionator Adventure tires. Never had an issue with them though. I topped out at 108 but that was dirt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mn990 Posted July 30, 2018 Report Share Posted July 30, 2018 I, with out a doubt, will be getting the new desert ht front and rear on my 990, I went from the old desert ht 90/100, and 140 rear, to a D606 front and mefo super explorer rear. The traction on dirt and pavement is disappointing comepared to the motoz tires! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But even so, I was very impressed with the wear and it still had a little knob height in the center. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
