Tyre advice

[Dwayne OMember]

Having run Pirelli MT21 combo the past couple of sets, I am ready to try something different on the 690 :whistle:

Plan to do similar rides that I have done lately (60% dirt 40% blacktop) or there about, but also still enjoy the usual Watagan, Yengo loops too where good grip is sometimes a must .
Dunlops seem to get good reviews & mileage and DOT approval is a must as I commute regularly ,,,,

D908 rear maybe with a different front ???
What other combo`s have proved to be successful ???

Thanx in advance

Speak with Steve Eags but in my opinion for where and how you ride I reckon 

Front
MITAS TYRE E-09 DAKAR – 90/90-21 

Rear
MEFO DUAL-SPORT, SUPER EXPLORER REAR – 140/80-18

Yeah, that combo sound and looks pretty good Thanx
I liked the look of the E09 front but was unsure on the rear after the reports on them,,,,,

I will save up after Easter then `cause the Mefo`s are dearer than I would normally fork out :whistle:

Hopefully I can get a good deal

[GregMember]

Speak with Steve he maybe over stocked :whistle:

There isn’t anything wrong with the E09 rears, the problem on the Camerons ride was they ran the tyre under pressure scoring a flat, damaging the rim and riding on the tyre when it was flat overheating the case.I am running one on the cape trip this year they are a good thing. I ran one around the high country last April was awesome

But maybe this post belongs to those other Dudes that actually like riding a mixture of tar and dirt. :unsure: :pinch:
Aha Aha haha. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

That`d be right,,,,
He might be overstocked & I am underfunded :whistle: :pinch:

Will work out something after Easter holidays
That is definately the way I am going to go with the combo though !!!

Cheers Again
