Has anyone got any recommendations for road tyres for stock dtr wheels? Also believe I've read some where on here a 120 width tyre will fit on the rear if anyone can confirm that? John.

I'm not sure. I'm running the stock 21" and 18" wheels.

Just for road use, I'm thinking of having a second set of wheels to fit my knobblies to.

I had pirelli scorpion Mt90s which were good for every day use.
Now have continental tkc80s 120 rear.

My bike came with Conti Escapes which I wasn't impressed with at all. I then switched to the TrailRiders and WOW what a difference. I was able to get a F-90/90/21 & R-120/80/18 on the stock rims and then gripped amazingly well, I felt more confident taking corners faster, both in the dry and wet. As well as great straight line stability too. Avon make some great motorbike tyres, and if you want a more slick road version look at the Roadrider tyres.
Here's some pics of my bike with the TrailRiders fitted;

I just changed rear tyre:
Brand is Deli it feels good in all terrain, even in asfalt.

Thanks for all the replies, the trailblazers definitely look promising for what I'm after. Cyber-ninja what inner tubes did you use with your trailblazers?
