NEwin Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 hey, Just got my first bike (DT125 for learning) but it doesn't have a valid MOT and I just wanted to ask if anyone knows what the deal is with legal tyres? Speficially are the types in the pictures legal? cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wild foamy Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 looks like the ones i had on my dt when i first got it, they look road legal judging by the tread pattern, if they arent road legal they sohuld be marked "Not for road use" or similar. make sure it has more than 1.6mm tread and they should be fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

busyeddie Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 1.6mm refers to cars 1mm is the limit for bikes and as said above, if they are E marked, and dont have a "not for highway" notice, you should be ok they dont look as knobbly as the michelins on my Suzuki DRZ400 and they're legal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
