macgyvercanada Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 (edited) Can anyone comment on whether the Duro HF307 in 2.75-14 would fit a V11? Clearance vs. knobby sides...https://fortnine.ca/en/duro-hf307-trail-tire Edited June 15, 2021 by macgyvercanada knobby! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seem to recall seeing the HF307 next to a CST C-186 in some thread around here, and the Duro was slightly smaller. The C-186 fits, so I would guess that the Duro should just fine. The SR-244 doesn’t even try to fit, but the SR-241 does look closer to a C-186 / Kenda K262, so it might fit. But on the MSX the C-186 supposedly fits better, so the SR-241 could be tight or require shaving. Why not go with the tried and true CST C-186 (EU) = Kenda K262 (US)?

I can't seem to get them in Canada! Tires are sold out all over the place. I think I'll roll the dice and order the Duro.

Scottie888 Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 I bought the Duro307 from the same source for my S18 & discovered in real time, they don't fit. At least not in diameter. Sold them to a bud & it fits his RS perfect. Don't have a V11 so I can't say for a fact but if tires that fits on RS works on V11, then the Duro will work. The Duro is a true motorcycle grade dual sport tire thats very commonly used on the adventure Ural bikes. Its likely a very good dual use tire that's going to have long life as well. IMO you won't go wrong 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously though, if tire's for V11 is compatible with RS (& Msuper series), then I'm sure you'll enjoy the Duro. I wanted to very badly but sadly, it wasn't meant to be.

macgyvercanada Posted June 17, 2021 Author Share Posted June 17, 2021 Hmm yup if it comes down to it I'm pretty sure I could make a belt sander out of some duct tape, a paperclip, and my V8F... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
