I really rate the rear Dunlop D908RR for travelling and dual sport type use, but hate the front, it makes the bike weave badly at any speed above 70 mph, and feels nervous at lower speeds as well.
I much prefer the Pirelli MT21 on the front for all road road and off road use.
The Dunlop D908RR seems to last longer than the MT21 on the rear, and its no problem mixed with the MT21 on the front.
Four of us used varying combinations of tyres on XR650R's for a mixture of terrain, roads, rocks and sand in Morocco and D908RR rear/MT21 front seemed the best combination.
SEATS.
We also used either standard seats with gel pad/re upholstered seat by a local guy, and American Renazco seats on 2 of the bikes. The Renazco seat was by far the most expensive option, but seemed to be by far the best for comfort as well judging from comments from the group, but of course this is subjective.
