Duro Tires

[Dave48]

Has anybody run the Duro 261A tires on the XS? There inexpensive, nice tread design and "H"rated. Are they any good?

Hi Dave,
the worst of modern tires work better than the tires our XS650s left the factory with.
But 2 new boots for under $140?
Tempting, eh?
Buy a pair and let us know how well they grip, how long they last.
The blurb sez "have been known to run over 10,000 miles in ideal conditions"
Yeah, right. Who's ideal was that?

I have a duro on mine. Fine in the dry. Terrifying in the wet.
