Do you mean DR650 Suzuki? Or DR250 ? I assume DR650.
Keep in mind, you can use several different sizes on the DR650 as long as it is a 17" tire. Stock size is: 120/17. As you know a 130/17 works as good as a 120.
Also a 140/17 will work fine. Road tires will also work OK in a pinch. Even a front 17" can work, like a 110 or 120/17 (common sizes). Not great but it will get you down the road if you are truly stuck.
How many miles (or kms) did your buddy get out of the T63 ?
Good luck!
