that's where one of these babies help out(Teraflex)....they don't last all that long,but in sand and grassy loamy areas...they hook up!!
I actually went riding with a buddy back in 1992ish that had an 88 CR500 with one of these strapped on the rear....I was on an XR600 following him on a set of powerlines...we were cruising along about 35mph...he was about 50-75 feet in front of me,then he crested over the the top of this hill and disappeared...then a second later a softball size boulder came shooting over the hill right over my head!!....those were fun days.

My Dad and I have been discussing using Super Moto wheels with a custom Skat trac paddle for the rear and a knobbie super motor wheel for the front.
It would be interesting to try it but that's a lot of money for a experiment.
So my Dad is having a rear rim mounted to a front hub and he will be using a super moto tire up front.
We'll know in a few weeks if that helps :-)

sandblaster:
