NHS Rear Medium Tyre - Dominate the Track with Superior Traction

Manufacturer Part Number: 047851604B0

🛑 Grip the Track Like Never Before

Every motocross rider knows the feeling, your start gate drops, but your rear tyre spins instead of launching you forward. Corners feel loose, braking feels sketchy, and your confidence takes a hit. That’s what happens when you rely on tyres not built for your terrain.

✅ The Tyre Designed to Put You in Control

The Kenda K785 Millville II is engineered for soft to intermediate terrain, with a directional paddle-shaped tread that claws into dirt, sand, and loam. It’s not just about grip, it’s about explosive starts, confident braking, and maximum control in every race situation.

🛠️ Race-Proven Technology in Every Knob

From the advanced rubber compound that balances traction with wear, to the tie-bar supports that keep tread blocks stable under load, every detail is built for performance. Extra biting edges on the shoulder blocks mean you can commit harder into corners and come out faster.

🏁 Three Steps to Transform Your Ride

1. Choose your size, this 90/100-16 is perfect for your rear wheel.

2. Fit it with ease, our tyres are designed for quick installation.

3. Hit the track and feel the difference from the very first lap.

⚠️ The Cost of Staying with Average Tyres

Keep your old or generic tyre and you’ll keep fighting for grip, losing speed in corners, and burning through rubber faster. In racing, that’s not just lost time, it’s lost podiums.

🏆 The Payoff of Upgrading Today

Switch to the Millville II and you’ll notice instant improvements: stronger starts, tighter turns, more consistent braking, and a tyre that lasts race after race. It’s the upgrade your bike and your results deserve.

• ⚠️ Watch for:

  • Swingarm and chain clearance (especially on modded Light Bee or Sting R)

  • Proper rim width (ideally 1.85"–2.15")

  • Tyre height (~24.5”) – may raise ride height slightly

⚡️ Sur-Ron & Talaria Compatibility – How It Works

  • Youth riders or smaller riders needing a lower seat height

  • Tight singletrack / soft terrain builds

  • Builds focused on lightness and flickability

• Training bikes or flat-track conversions with smaller tyre circumference

🧠 Pros & Cons on Sur-Ron / Talaria

✅ Pros

• Lightweight = less unsprung mass = quicker handling, better battery efficiency
