Been "baby-stting" an XT600 for a mate who'll be riding it around the country for a few weeks.
(it belongs to him, but he left it with me after his last trip)

It's gonna need a rear tyre; from other threads I've seen you lot seem to rate the Mitas E07.

Anyone got one (or similar?) I can have/buy?
It needs to be a 130/80/17.

Only catch is I need it pretty quick smart.
