bruce dow brooklyn,  NY P-Scorpion Have enjoyed these tires in the past, and got good service from them. But now they are made only in a tube version, not tubeless. Why? The ease of a tubeless works well on a big GS bike. Wasn't able to use the tire.

TODD P. CENTRAL,  OH Tremendous Performer I purchased an 05 KLR 650 as a commuter/recreation bike. I am 47 and have been riding since the age of 8, both on and off road. My interest is dual sport riding, style conservative/aggressive. My commute takes me between five and six hundred miles a week. Mostly on country roads and secondary highways, rain or shine. Lots of 50+mph cruising. The factory Dunlops were wore out at 7500mi. They were also evil handling. The Pirelli MT90 Scorpion S/T's are the best tires I've tried for the purpose. I have had two seasons on this set of tires for better than 19k. Both could go another 2 or 3k. As a note, these tires seem pressure sensitive and prefer higher pressures in order to wear properly. I would definitely buy them again and recommend them highly.

Daniel Armstrong Pine River,  MN Best tires I've had yet I've put 6k miles on these tires now, and it appears I'll get another 4k out of the rear, and probably double that out of the front. Rain doesn't bother them, they perform flawlessly on gravel roads, deep soft stuff will make them squirm, but that's to be expected.

Gary East Troy,  WV MT90 scorpion tire Only have one on the rear of my DR650 now, but can't wait to add a front as well. Real smooth on road and sticks like glue in the corners. Skittish off-road, but that's to be expected in a 95/5 tire. Works OK on dirt and gravel roads, which is about as off-road as this bike sees. And after about 800 miles, seems to be wearing well, should last a long time.

Tuck9mm Brevard County,  CA Scorpion S/T This tire is a remarkable improvement over the stock TrailWing on a Suzuki DR650. The Scorpions really keep a grip in the turns and are great tires if you ride your dual sport mostly on the street. Nice and smooth going over the draw-bridge now too; that used to be an unpleasant experience with the knobs catching in the grating.

scott h. Kennesaw,  CA scorpions are great I'm on my second set of scorpions and they are excellent tires, if you like aggressive street riding. My first set lasted 11,500 miles riding at a moderate to aggressive style. I have a triumph tiger, so I do go off road every so often and they perform well here also. I recommend them to an aggressive rider or someone that wants a tire that turns quickly. If you don't like that "falling-in" effect that a tire gives you, buy an anakee or tourance.

R_W Pleasanton,  CA Pirelli Scorpion ST Only 1,000 miles so far, but seems to be a great road tire. Does fine on dry pack and OK on gravel if your pressure is right. Obviously not a mud tire. I like it better than the scorpion AT. This one is almost as good on dirt and WAY better on highway and mileage.

w Santa Clara,  CA Review I've tried every dual sport tire made and the Pirelli MT90 Scorpion ST is the best. Great traction in both wet and dry conditions. They will last a long tim e even when ridden hard. Great feel and ride comfort.

Paul Miller Tuttle ,  CA Pirelli Scorpion S/T Tires This tire is great if you are going to most all of your riding on street or dry dirt (BE VERY CAREFUL ON MUD!). It has lasted nearly 15,000 miles of hard use (that's opposed to the 5,000 I got out of the factory tire). I'm sure it would go farther under a little less demanding circumstances. I ride pretty hard with lots of quick takeoffs and stops. I can lay my KLR650 over to the peg without tire slippage on corners. Ordering my second rear tire now.
