If you are at 90/10 pavement rides, it might be worth your while to also look into Karoo Street. They are also not too bad off road. If I were to make a choice between the 2 tyres in question, I would go for the Dunlop.
Wow! Thank you for the nice ride report. Baviaans has bee on my bucket list for a while now, but the buffalo might make rethink it. Then again, it is not called adventure riding for nothing. Glad you all made it out safe.
I would go for the 1200. I went from an AT 750 to GS 1200. I am also 'n kortgat at 1.73m and I bought the normal 1200, not adventure. A good swap for me. I also considered the 800, but it was too tall for me.
So hartseer om te hoor. Sal bid vir hulle wat agterbly. Baie dankie vir die deel. Noop ons opnuut weer om op die uitkyk vir die tarentale te wees. RIV ons mede "biker" vriend.
