Okay, so I am a serious noob.
Bought the KLE500 with almost no tread left on the original Dunlop Trailmax rear tyre.
Front Trailmax still has lots of tread.
Not going to do much in terms of gravel until I am more confident on the bike.
For now just learning and at best will do level 1 (pillion-friendly gravel).
95% tar for the foreseeable future.
So fitting serious offroad tyres just does not make sense.
So much has been said about road tyres for big bore DS bikes.
What about smaller bore bikes like the KLE500?
Does the same count, i.e.
Anakees
Tourance
E08
Distanzia
Most of the riders on 1000cc + seem to favour Anakees.
Or would it be best to keep front and back same and fit new Trailmax?
Advice?
