Altaboy:
The stock tires seem ok. However I don't think that the rear will last very long. I am going to try a Mitas E09 next
Ldman:
We get Metzeler Sahara 3 of the same size on the 2014 EU model
Alabama Adventurer:
I read an interesting review of the stock tires here http://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/pirelli-mt21-rallycross-rear-tires; look for 'RustyShovel'.
I am also thinking about the D908 rear.
Bartlioni:
After 1800 miles I had eaten half of that poor rear knobby off my bike. I ride mostly on the pavement, and so I set about a quest to find the best true enduro tire. I wound up going with the Heidenau K-60 scout tires. Those german bastardos don't duck around. They make a 70/30 rear and a 50/50 rear. I went with the 50/50. Supposed to get 9-12 thousand miles off of them. I have 700 miles on them, and so I can't say much about that. But I can say these babies stick to the road like glue and still do a very respectable job on trails and gravel. Can't say I'd go muddin' with them, but with enough Jack Daniels anything is possible. Should happenstance require a hasty redirection across a cotton field to avoid undesirable legal encounters, then I have complete faith in my K-60s to deliver me from justice. So if you're orientation is mostly street riding with moderate dirt thrown in, or you may require a spontaneous transition to off-road conditions when the blue lights suddenly appear, then these Heidenau tires are the bomb. I swear by 'em.
