Kenda 100/90-19 K786 Washougal II 57M Rear Tyre: Ultimate Off-Road Traction

Losing Drive on Harder Terrain?

Many riders struggle with rear tyres that wear quickly or lose grip when conditions get tougher. That means less control, wasted power, and slower lap times.

Enter the Washougal II

The Kenda K786 Washougal II 100/90-19 Rear Tyre is built for intermediate to hard terrain. With a dual-compound construction, it combines a strong base layer for durability with a softer surface compound that bites into the track, giving you maximum traction where it counts.

Your Plan for Performance

1. Fit the Washougal II to your 19” rear wheel.

2. Experience stronger drive and stability through corners and straights.

3. Ride longer with confidence, thanks to its durable construction and optimised tread design.

The Risk of Staying With Less

Stick with the wrong rear tyre and you’ll spin out of corners, wear rubber too fast, and struggle to put down consistent power.

The Reward of Upgrading

With the Washougal II, you’ll unlock sharper acceleration, improved cornering grip, and lasting performance on demanding tracks.

⚡️ Fitment on Sur-Ron & Talaria

🧠 How It Performs on Sur-Ron & Talaria

✅ Pros

• Excellent traction in loamy, soft, or intermediate terrain

• Very durable knobs and sidewalls – great for electric torque

• Wider profile = more grip, especially under throttle

• Handles torque loads well — ideal for modded Light Bees or Sting R

⚠️ Considerations

• Heavier than stock – may slightly reduce throttle snappiness on Light Bee or Sting

• Taller sidewall = may need fender trim or sag adjustment on full compression

• 19” rim only – won’t fit Ultra Bee or Storm Bee unless you run aftermarket 19” rear wheels
