The 705's will be my next tires I'll try on the dual sports.
It really depends on your riding habits. We do 90% paved twisties and 10% gravel roads so we don't need anything aggressive. If you do a lot of off road, I'd steer clear of anything that resembles a street tire.

I will say this though, for our riding purposes, the stock tires that come in the TT250 have been surprisingly good for cheap stock tires.

I run 705s on my CB500X.They are great every where except mud. Not many tires are good in the mud. I don't like mud and try to avoid it.

For some reason I woke up from a dream and that was in it.

An all time GREAT commercial! They didn't even sell it here at the time and people were saying that.....

That's a beautiful shot of Rainier in the background. We had Rainier in Alberta in the '80's, and we all became familiar with it during the local beer strike.

20 inches of snow in a couple of days will do that. My dog my couldn't find her squirrel and even if she did couldn't chase it around that tree.

Would it be wrong if a guy I know used a snow blower and a backpack yesterday to get to a bar during a blizzard? He was running out of beer and the bar was only about a block away if that matters.

It would have been wrong NOT to go for the proper help!
