Hi Fellas,

I have the stock DR650 tyres on and have been on a few gravel trips and a few slightly rougher rides but no single track stuff. Tyres felt fine and I left them because I commute and figured all is good. I've done about 2200kms since December last year so it's not like I put a crazy amount of km's on them (Covid helped there, I know).

Was thinking of replacing the tubes with HD ones at the same time, was going to leave the front as it's in really good condition still.
Looking to replace the rear as it's getting really slim and I seem to fancy the Mitas E-09's.

Thoughts? Either the Mitas or Motoz GPS/Tractionator? Is it fine to bumpo the size up to 130?

Also is there a huge improvement in replacing the front? Any idea of a good friend for the E-09?
