HI , I just bought a f650gs 2009 and would like to change the tires for on and off roads. I want soething that will work well on road but enough grip to go off road kinda like in this video . Any sugestions? Thanks from Canada

Hio Giodog,

For asfalt/tarmac and easy off road tracks, like the video ;) the Metzeler Tourance is perfect ( I love these tires ). Also the Michelin T66 (standard tires) will do. You can do at least 10K miles with them.

For sand or dirt go for the Continental TKC80. Had a 650GS before tpp, a fun bike and easy to play with, suspension is worth changing.

Suggestion: buy a tiregauge and measure every time. Off-road you can lower your tirepressure a bit.

Keep it safe and enjoy !!!!

Ik stelde me de zelfde vraag, ik heb net mijn GSA 1200 besteld met de standaard bannen voor op de weg (woon werk verkeer voornamelijk). Heb ik hiermee toch genoeg grip om ook offroad te gaan zoals in dit filmpje? , kan me niet voorstellen dat ik altijd banden moet wisselen als ik eens naar de Ardennen wil trekke :)

Hoi Warlock,

behalve vette/natte modder en/of mul zand kan je off-road met je standaard banden prima uit de voeten. (in dit filmpje voor 95%) Wat wel helpt is je bandenspanning iets te verlagen.

Als je echt een keertje iets wilt leren kan ik je BMW Enduropark Hechlingen aanbevelen.

Veel plezier met je nieuwe GS 1200!!

I ride in the Ardennes all that time on my Monster. Having done most of the roads in the Alps on it,,,I've decided to trade the Ducati in for a more suitable tourer for this years trip. Thinking about the new Tenere... Where did you find these trails in the Ardennes? Possible for you to give me some directions please? Nice video,,,by the way!!

Thanks 1kroc1. I have seen your alps shots too.

This was an offroad weekend trying to avoid tarmac. Starting from Maastricht we folowed the canal (Prins Albert ??) We had to ride trhough Liege and then headed to La Roche en Ardenne for a night camping. Next day heading to Hotton and Durbuy.

I picked my trail by my GPS, looking for small roads, but if I saw an interesting turn I took it. We never had to turn back!
