TA XL650V best off road tyres? Pamir Hwy/Mongolia
Hi all.
Looking for some tyres for a 2001 XL650V for the Pamir Hwy and Mongolia in June/July this year. Riding one up.
This will be my first bike of this type having always had Enduro/MX or sports bikes so my knowledge of these tyres is pretty minimal.
The bike currently has 130/80 17 and 90/90 21 Metz Tourances which look like they would be rubbish in the dirt. So the plan is to ride to Uzbekistan on the Tourances before switching just before hitting the Pamir Hwy.
I am almost set on Mitas E-07 and I am contemplating going to a 140/80 rear?
Love to hear some feedback. :confused1:
Cheers,
Tom
