DRZ rear tyre recommendation (too lazy to trawl through previos tyre threads!)

Post by jonperry64 »

It has been pointed out to me that I have a slick for a rear tyre on my DRZ so time to replace it. Usual dilemma - ie. need something for offroading but I tend to do a lot of tarmac miles getting to meets - so bound to be a compromise. What would current/ex DRZ owners recommend?
