Description
If you’re running a 450cc desert bike hard across varied terrain, you need a tire engineered for genuine durability and predictable grip—not a compromise. The Michelin Desert Race delivers the same proven performance that’s earned KTM Factory Racing 34 Dakar Rally victories since 1982, with cut and impact resistance that holds up even in extreme heat. This is a tire built for riders who demand reliability when traction and stability matter most.
