MikeWa Posted November 7, 2014 Share #1 Posted November 7, 2014 So what is the best snow tire for a Venture ? Should the front and rear be different ? Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ragtop69gs Posted November 7, 2014 Share #2 Posted November 7, 2014 A spiked knobby on the rear and although you may question this choice, a poly ski with carbide runners on the front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zagger Posted November 8, 2014 Share #3 Posted November 8, 2014 Maybe you should think about chains. Seems like a good plan to me! http://www.thesabregroup.com/forum/get_attachment.php?webtag=THESABREGROUP&hash=7ba949f72e72cf79b789c8ce5e5f0afe&filename=Image.jpg zag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dacheedah Posted November 9, 2014 Share #7 Posted November 9, 2014 we used to screw short sheet metal screws in our knobbies for snow riding. Bikes were much lighter and more responsive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midnightventure Posted November 9, 2014 Share #8 Posted November 9, 2014 As heavy as the Venture is I would go with a different bike. I have ridden bikes in the snow but I wouldn't a Venture. I have ridden the Dr and a Suzuki 500 in the snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black wing Posted November 9, 2014 Share #9 Posted November 9, 2014 im running a pirelli scorpion in the front and a TW 40 in the rear. TW40 and the TW202 are the only knobbies for our first gens rear tire also do your frame a favor and give everything a healthy coat of ACF 50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
