    Understandable as your bike weighs nothing and would probably get traction on the rims

    on my tenere 660 now using a heidenau k60 scout on the rear. awesome tyre, gr8 on gravel n tar, long lasting too, got 8000km out of last one.(was totally stuffed) .using continental tkc 80 on front which is really good too. best combination for adventure riding ive found. have tried Michelins 4-5000kms, Mitas 3000km, all on rear , n fronts, nothing lasted as long as the heidenau n continental combo .not expensive either.

    The K60 does have a high average life at 13,600 km and a very low average price of 1.7 cents per kilometer of : http://www.remotemoto.com/tyres/heid...t-140130-rear/

    Mitas do a range of rears, some off-road aggressive models like the C16 (http://www.remotemoto.com/tyres/mitas-c-16-rear/) only get around 3,000 km but the E07 is probably the most similar comparison to the more road/light off-road oriented Heidenau K60 which averages at 11,000 km at a cost of 2.1 cents per kilometer (http://www.remotemoto.com/tyres/mitas-e-07-rear/)

    Feel free to post your tyre review, the more people that add their reviews will increase the accuracy of the RemoteMoto Tyre Reviewer and provide a great resource for comparing and choosing tyres

    Cheers
