Tyres for a little bit of dirt?

Post by CRazyCam »

Hi folks.

I am looking for tyres for my R850R, and would like a pair which are maybe 90% on road, 10% off road.

Has anyone found that style of tyre which fits the 18 inch rear wheel?

Did you find "the perfect tyre" already?

I've been looking at the Heidenau K60 and at Pirelli MT60...

Not really...... :(

The nearest I have found are Pirelli Scorpions.

They do a front tyre which is spot on for my bike, but the rear is a 150/70 18 which shows up in only some tyre sellers web sites, so I dunno how available they really are.
