Dual-Sport Tires ... ???

[GsVs]

HONDABIKEPRO put TKC 80 knobbies on his ... which most would rate as a 50/50 type -- see link below

Was wondering if there is a set of Dual-Sport tires available to fit the NC .... say something in the 70/30 type ... similar to the Shinko 705's ??

Anyboby found any yet ??

Thanks ...

I have a set of Pirelli MT60R's queued up to try next.

Those Pirelli's look nice, have you used them before? How are they in the rain? My first impression of the stock Metz is that it is not for me. My transalp has a set of the Metz Tourance which has a wider lug than the Pirelli which if the Pirelli's are listed as 60/40, then I'm guessing the Tourance's would be a 70/30. Only problem is that they do not offer them in a 160/60-17, only a 150/70-17 which will be .4" thiner and .75" taller. Has anyone put a thiner tire on this bike yet? How did it fit on the rim?
