Im after a dual sport tyre for my XR, Any recommendations. Ive seen a tyre on the big KTM adventures that looks pretty smart, think it was a Pirelli scorpion?

Mainly on road, Continental TKC80 Twinduro, though they will be fine off road, and if you use it mainly off road, Mitas 02 Comps. (They are legal!!)

I use the Mitas on the DR and they are great, even on the way to work in the rain I have no trouble and they excelled themselves on my trip into the peaks. Cheap too.

My rear Trailwing on the DT is getting close to being illegal would Pirelli MT 21 Rallycross tyres be a decent replacement? I use the bike mostly on the road but am planning to use it more for lanes soon and the when ever I have used it before the Trailwings were terrible offroad.

Also do you think I would be ok with a Trailwing front and an MT 21 on the back because the front has plenty of life left in it, or should I just replace both?
