 Hi there,

> * Bridgestone Trail Wing TW 101 / TW 152
> * Dunlop D604 Trailmax
> * Metzeler Enduro 4
> * Michelin T66 / T66X
> * Pirelli MT 80

It has to be stated, that there are absolutely just two pairs of tyres legaly allowed on the RD04: That are the

	+Dunlop K560 Nylon bzw. the K660
	+Bridgestone TW 47 (front) and TW 48 (rear)

The Honda-Guy on the "Motorräder 97" confirmed that. There is in addition
the possibility of a technical-fact-sheet and a "Einzelabnahme" with the
Metzeler 3 + 4!!!!!

Nevertheless is it possible to get a "Desert" written in your papers if you
drive to "Honda Saarholz" in Hinterpusemuckel somewhere and pay 100 Deutsch
Marks. You even have to buy the first pair of tyres at theire shop!!

I just spoke to the Guy from the "Homoglobations-Departement" of
Honda-Offenbach: Right now they are testing new Tyres for the RD 07. They
will NOT test new tyres for the RD04 or RD03.
My question is: Who needs real of Road tyres anyway on a RD07 but on a RD04
or 03??? ;-) Well.....


Greetings

Pathetic Ralf
