Tires

From Suzuki DR650 Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search
 

Tires! Even with the DR650's 17" rear tire there are still a fairly good number of tires to choose from depending on what type of riding you are planning on doing. We'll list them in the %street/%dirt format based on published data, riders experience or pull a rabit out of our hat best guess. So knowing that YMMV right along with traction you get. :-) We need your comments here riders!

Since the DR650 and the KLR use the same size tires..... This link will take you to the KLR community's awesome tire research and experience listing. It has pictures, links and rider comments on most of the major dual sport tire brands. All credit and thanks to the KLR guys for this great resource!


[edit] 80/20

These are the tires I run on my bike. They are low cost tires. I've had good luck with them in street and dirt riding but they are not MX tires! In spirited twisties riding the rear tire breaks loose in a predictable manner. I got around 5k out of my first rear tire. The front was showing some cupping but not enough to need changing IMO.

  • Mitas E-07 are a low cost high mileage tyre. Not available in all countries.

  • Continental TKC80 are very popular with many riders given there great off road performance. Though they last around 2k.
