Tusk tires

Has anyone run any of them yet? I tend to stick to my Shinko 505 or 525 Cheater rears, but I don't have a big preference on fronts anymore. I'm open to trying a different rear next time. I have brand new Shinko 525 rear and Pirellie Scorpion MX eXTra-X-Soft to Mid front waiting to be installed.

I have. I forget the name of tire but its the one thats a dunlop d606 copy. Ive had that on the rear. Its good. Not 100% sure if it last quite as long as the dunlop but for 1/2 the price its a bargain. I plan on running one again.

I have been running the Recon as my go to rear for a long time. For the money you can't beat it. Soft and grippy but wears a long time as well.

I think I'll give one of those Talon fronts a try next go around. The 2Track Adventure tires look suspiciously similar to the Motoz Tractionator GPS tires I've been using on the 1090.

I have the D-sports on the 701. Did the NEBDR and Shen500 w/ A options.
The front is sort of crappy. The knobs taper wear REALLY bad under braking.
The rear is ok but hard. A Kenda K760 rear would be a much better 'more dirt oriented' dual sport rear (but they don't make one wide enough for the 701.)

I just swapped tires on my dualsport bike. Tusk Dsports. I've had them on other bikes, but both were bike I didnt' put many miles on before I sold them.

Most likely I'll keep this one for a while. I'd like to get higher mileage and see how well they wear in and last.
