I've also been pleasantly surprised by how well the stock Chinese rubber has performed on and off road for the TT250. I need to replace the rear on mine and have wondered if I'd stick with the stock or look at something else. I love the Shinko 705 on my CB500X on gravel but I think it's probably too tame for trail riding on the TT250. Seem to be a lot of options. I don't want to give up the street performance which I love on the stock TT250 rubber but a little more trail performance would be nice. We have a fair bit of sand around here too but few rocks and no mountains.
