John Bond Wilkesboro,  NC Shinko E-700 Trail Master 5.10-17" This is a very solid tire. Great cornering on asphalt, good grip on loose gravel. Wear life is very, very good. I'm not putting a mileage figure on this tire because I run a lot of 60/40 or worse. I used to run Scorpions, but for the money and for what I do it didn't make sense putting that pricey of a tire in such abrasive conditions. In my opinion this is the more cost effective approach. Buy with confidence for your dual sport!

Brien Stockton,  CA Gret Tire I love this tire. Great all around tire for a dual sport. I got close to 8000 miles out of my set, approx 20% of the miles off road. Never a flat and extremely happy with them, Fairly quiet also. They’ll be my next set also.

Mandingo Petersburgh,  NY As you would expect Great tire for pavement and dirt roads. It didn't do too bad on trails either. Watch out for mud and wet grass! Great tire for the price! I've got about 600 miles on it and it looks good.

Bob Anthony Loveland,  CO Good tire for the price! A hell of a lot better than the Kenda K771 Millvilles. I only got a 1000 miles out of the Kenda tires (worst tires ever). I don't notice that much performance difference in dry dirt traction from the previous luggers. My CRF230 Honda converted enduro, will still pull the front wheel off the ground on the steep-stuff. Huge improvement on pavement - quite, smooth, and scrapping the foot-pegs on corners. The front tire still shows no wear after 800 miles. These shinko tires absolutely suck in the snow, but I guess I should not been in knee-deep snow to start with.

Randy Inyokern,  CA A 160 percent tire! I give this tire an 90 percent on-road rating, and a 70 percent offroad rating! It does surprisingly well in the dirt in spite of it's somewhat wimpy appearance. Like most tires it's better offroad when air'd down. On road it's great - smooth, quiet, natural handling, and it seems grippy. I've only had it on for 600 miles so can't judge mileage but I can't imagine it going less than the Karoos and D606s I've been running on my DR650. My one concern is it seems a little on the light side - flexible sidewall probably means it's thin. So for that real adventure...you might want to go with a proven tough tire. FWIIW, I've had it in pretty rough mojave rock on a few rides and so far not a mark. I can't give the tire a 5 in any category because there are undoubtably better tires for each of the categories. However, for overall quality and capability I give it 5 stars. For value I give it 6 stars!

jim sonoma,  CA shinko 700 rear I like this tire. Feels good on the freeway until you hit the wear marks. Got about 5000 miles from the rear. My commute is 40 miles hwy and 2 miles crazy drive up the driveway through the vineyard. The tire feels great on the dirt around the ranch and the twisty roads around here.

Tom Elkhorn,  WI Good Tire for the price I recently replaced a set of IRC GP-1's with these on my 85 Honda XL600R. The on-road handling is vastly improved. I've been able to use the entire contact patch while cornering and they feel very stable with whatever I've thrown at them. Off-road the handling is very predictable, you just can't ride the bike as hard like with full knobbies.

Mike Chattanooga,  TN Shinko 700 Series Dual Sport So far so good, I have taken two rides that really put the tires traction to the test and they passed with flying colors. You will need to drop the air down to about 15lbs on rocky trails but I did not lose any traction and this was very mountainous tough terrain. Tread life is too soon to tell. Cornering on payment is about what you would expect. I felt the front give a little but when I poured on the gas they held. So far for the money you can't beat them.
