Loved your review. Almost pulled the trigger on some T35s but your review of the MX34 changed my mind. Im at 4000ft high desert and volcanic and glacier formed riding area so very similar to your terrain.
Your opinions about the Dumblops vs Tusk. Are just that opinions. And it might only apply to desert. But, we all seen what the Pro's did to thier Factory Race Compound Dumblop MX34 tires. They Cut the center lugs in half to gain more traction. Plus, we all seen many Factory team Pro's washout in the corners.
I love Dunlop’s but I’ve been running tusk mx35 on two strokes 125 and 250 for motocross and it’s everything from hard pact to deep loam and they hold up just fine and I have zero complaint especially considering I got 4 tires for the prize of 2.5 dunlop. For beating up tires training I’d stick to tusk but maybe for a race season I’d run dunlops just to give me a tiny bit better performance
