That Kenda Washougal is truly magical. i saw it on a bike in Big R's garage after he and the owner of the bike got back from Cali. It looked brand new still even after lots of hard miles including some pavement. Pattern was similar to my favorite, Pirelli Scorpion Pro that chunk way too quick!!!
i bought 2.
Never chunked a knob off and saw many rides on 2 different 450's. It still has lots of life left and is sitting in my garage.
Put the other on the 950SER and no chunking at all after seeing some good ST duties at Maclean.
It is a good all around tire in almost all conditions except Porky's slime days.
It happens to be DOT too which is not why i got it as i did not know until it arrived and i saw it stamped on there.
If you are not racing, that tire will get you through 2 seasons. (You know racers, they change tires often).
EDIT: just looked and i sold my last bike with the Washougal on it. i know he was going to dual sport it so if he is reading this i am curious how much longer that tire lasted
