You can regularly get over 10,000 out of a set of $100.00 Kendas though. -Jeff Khoury

If you look at, Metzler, Enduro 3 Sahara, tires they are rated 50/50 and come stock on BMW F650gs & F800gs DUALSPORT bikes, You tubing you can see what they say the bike can do. ALOT smother & quieter then stock D606. ALOT less vibration on hands Etc., also. Medum (6-10) of sand Mild MUD rocks gravel etc etc. They are what I had on when I Rode 8000 miles (RT) to Seatle (Victoria) and hm. Lots of gravel roads, some sandy or muddy trails ETC ETC. (slower then MANY.) With NO issues,, and Light off rd experiance. IN Death valley the KLR had TKC-80's 25/75? and again I was suprised what they would do. IF I know I'm heading to heavyer sand, 4-14, ETC. Lots of loose gravel etc. I would want the TKC-80s, For Average, roads Paved or regular PACKED dirt roads and med trails I like the 50/50 for less vibration and longer PAVED rd wear.
