Any suggestions for a new rear tire for an F650GS Dakar? OEM was the Metzler Sahara which should be gone at about 6k miles. I wouldn't mind a switch to a more road type tire since I am planning a long road trip to include the national rally. Has anyone tried radial tires? Thanks.
 
Two tires that generally get high praise for the 650's are TKC-80 Contis (more agressive knobbies. Great road holding, for a knobbie, but less wear) and Michelin Anakees (More road oriented, but still good off-road with the proper tire pressure).
