Hi, search function seems to be down atm, just wondering what people think of dual sport tyres (as in, road legal knobblies, not racing slicks with a deep tread).

Just bought a set of TKC-80s for my DR650, the other tyre I was going to go for was the Trelleborg army special, the tread looks a lot taller on these for a start, anybody used them? Like them?

nearly double that unless you find a big sale.

Both excellent and they LAST.

From experience you get a 'bigger block' TKC for larger bikes AT/GS etc and a smaller block TKC. We got 10k miles out of our rear TKC, changed in Cameroon but still had some life left, on an Africa Twin on the Cape Town trip (these tyres can be run tubeless too) but the smaller block TKCs don't last as long (as demonstrated by a friend on his DRZ400). Anyone done anymore research on this?

Hi Edteamslr !

Do you still have the original luggage rack for the Africa Twin ?
If so, how much ? And would you send it to Sweden ?
