I really like those tires. If I have the XR as my 'hard core' dirt bike I can use Q as a Dualsport and when I wear the knobbies out (doesn't take me long...) those dualsport tires look like just the ticket.
Chiming in...
Tires are Shinko 705s and had less than 500 miles on them when I parked the bike.
Honest opinion: Very good on the street, decent on gravel. I wouldn't push them on tricky dirt or wet grass (they don't bite well.)
