Which tires?
[FONT='Times New Roman','serif']I'll be heading from Bellingham, Washington to Prudhoe Bay in June on my F650GS. Its partly to see Alaska to the top and partly a shakedown ride for October trip to Tierra del Fuego. Looking for ride partners for both trips - pm me in interested.[/FONT]
[FONT='Times New Roman','serif']The 650 is new to me (other bike is an RT - strictly pavement). [/FONT]
[FONT='Times New Roman','serif']Looking for advice from those who have gone before on which tires to put on the F650 for Alaska trip - and later for Latin America trip.[/FONT]
[FONT='Times New Roman','serif']I've narrowed it down to either Metzeler Tourance, for milage or Continental TKC-80, for grip. But, since I've not been up the Dalton Hwy before, not sure which is more appropriate.:confused1: What's your advice?[/FONT]
[FONT='Times New Roman','serif']Thanks,[/FONT]
