Its time to buy a new front tire and would like some opinions on what you have found to work best for you. I am leaning towards the MX 51..
Thanks

I LOVE the mx51s but they are pretty soft. I usually use one rear tire a month for my 450

I have had good luck with the MX51 on the front. I don't like it for a rear tire. A lot of the other tires I have used on the front shed the side knobs prettty quick. A least this has been my experience.

I’ve never like Bridgestone after they are broke in. They get too hard. I’m old school. I always come back to Dunlop intermediates

I've always had great luck with the Michelin M12 they wear good and I love the grip...on a 250f that is.
But they don't come cheap.

I like the Pirelli Scorpion XC mid-hard as well but they are not cheap..  I've not tried the MX51 yet, although I do have a set of them in the garage waiting to be put on to start the season on.
