I had both on my vstrom 650. Road riding was good on the rear. Off road even though dirt oriented was bad unless aired down to 20 psi. It lasted 7000 and the last 3/8” shredded fast on the tarmac. I hated the front from the day I put it on. Washed out easily. Especially in gravel. I toook it off and put the old Shinko 705 back on and it was better. I still have the front, it’s about 70% if anyone wants it. Now switching to Miya’s Enduro E7
Have 8k on this set currently. You hit the nail on the head with these. I need to burn hundreds of miles just to get to some pavement that has some corners. I run them as i need longevity on slab riding but with some ability to do fire roads / hard pack etc. So iam 95%+ pavement but still want to get to some good camps etc so far there working out great. I have a 1.5k trip planed in a few days with some minor offroad for 50-70 miles (big bend area) and went over my tires closely. The rear getting close but after 8k think its got enough life, the front has plenty left. I am ordering a new rear now, when the front goes.. may look for other options as has some crazy wobble around 35-45mph on deceleration and low like 10-5. On acceleration no issues. So soon 9-10k miles on a rear that has decent offroad abilities thats a winner for me.
Have used these for long haul off road (formed roads) on my SuperTenere here in Oz and am more than pleased with them, tho' something less on the front. I think the front in 90/90x21 (for my T700) will be better than the 110/80x19 on the S10 so will use them for my ride from Perth to Melbourne followed by a lap of Tasmania and home again. Confident they will go the distance.
How you liking the GPS on the S10? I am leaning toward those or the adventures next for mine. Currently on Mitas E07s. Only issue is its also my daily commute bike too, so I get like 1000 miles 1600 km a month on it
Great vid 👊🏽 I run Motoz ona T7.. Tracctionator Adv on rear and Desert HT up front for AZ desert and dirt.. goin to mount GPS front & rear for AZ to AK n back.. Dubya wheels. Thanks for the confirmation!
Rear is a great tyre until it's wet or particularly pebbly, that centre strip is amazing on the road but chaos when it's slippery :-) Front tyre is pretty decent in most conditions.
Have this tire on the rear wheel of my Africa Twin and love it. Will probably go for something a bit more aggressive on the front when the Trailmax Mission wears out though
I love motoz tires. As far as I know, they haven't made it to any Eastern dealerships. I'm in Pennsylvania and the only way I can get my paws on them is to order online. I have the rallz on the back. Incredible traction but it is horribly loud on the road. I just got the GPS for the front. I'm planning to use the GPS on the back too. Could you tell me how loud the adventure was, on the road? I'm on a 2022 KLR adventure by the way. Nice video. I like midlife reviews on tires. I can tell you've been ridin for a while. 👊
I have been learning gravel and dirt riding on a Benelli TRK 502x with Metzler Tourance tires on it. I am learning to just let them slide a bit and I have taken them through some 200 yard slick mud spots and through our terraced pasture. Being used to something with limited grip, I am thinking these Motoz will be a night and day difference.
I found the GPS set really good on the road, you can really push them in the twistys, offroad they work really well if you let the air down a bit, im running the adventures right now, really noisy on the highway
I'm running adventure rear and dual venture front. The front gets shaky at 90 mph, but other than that they've been great on and off road. Nearly 4k miles on them and more than half of the tread is left. I'm thinking about the GPS for longer trips with big stretches of highway before the fun starts.
Great tire but mine vibrate between 15 and 35 mph. Noticeable coming off the stock tires. Everything else is fantastic. Has anyone else experienced this? My other thought is the dealership tried to ride my africa twin dct with the parking brake on. I think/hope it is the former.
I ran the Heidenau scout (Rear size 170 ) on my 1290 adventure and didn't like the center strip off road or in the wet. I put the Heidenau scout (Rear 140 ) on my 690 enduro and it does not have the center strip which made it a great ride in all conditions
@@stevenvankoutrik992 I really like the 790, I just want something different. Theres not really anything to replace it with honestly, but ill probably end up on a transalp.
Yes I am running them with tubes front and rear on my KLR. As the reviewer said, I think they are a good 50-50 tire. Bike does seem to squirm some when you get in loose stuff on top of hard pack. Great on the road.

I have the GPS on the rear of my Africa Twin. Just rode 1,600 mile trip to Colorado. Still looks like new
What you using on front ?
I’ve got the gps rear / Dualventure front combo on my 650 Suzuki and I’m happy with them.
Thats a good setup
What that combo like on wet roads?
@@holden3083 I’ve not tried it on wet bitumen or mud sorry

Om putting this on my Super tenere soon. I do lots of gravel but enough tar seal too.

Some riders air down the tire by as much as 15 psi for offroad times.
I have the gps on my africa twin. great tires
Do you run the front as well?
I found the GPS set really good on the road, you can really push them in the twistys, offroad they work really well if you let the air down a bit, im running the adventures right now, really noisy on the highway
I see guys running the GPS rear off-road a bunch. Some people complain about the Motoz grip but they have good grip and last longer than most.
Looks like the same tread on my Continental TKC-130's which are on my KTM 390 ADV bike.
I'm running adventure rear and dual venture front. The front gets shaky at 90 mph, but other than that they've been great on and off road.

Very likely the next set I run to replace the stock T7 Pirelli's.
Good review Rodney
Thanks Ian
Great review. Thank you.
Very good review. Please do an update whenever you put more miles and hit different terrain. Thanks for sharing!
This may not be an issue for you... but (IMHO) do not ride in snow or ice on that tire !
Center stripe offers no traction ! Don't ask how I know.
Doh! I wouldn't recommend anything thick.Lol
Do not ride in snow or ice on any tire :)
I ran the Heidenau scout (Rear size 170 ) on my 1290 adventure and didn't like the center strip off road or in the wet. I put the Heidenau scout (Rear 140 ) on my 690 enduro and it does not have the center strip which made it a great ride in all conditions

agree
the Motoz reg adventure rear and Dual Venture front is my new go to combo
@@justsomedude445 Thats a good setup for more dirt.
@@MobMoto feels like a good combo gfor my useage anyway
I would question its traction with a center scrip for smoothness with hard rubber on curves, or in the rain on pavement.
Good job!
head shake on a 790? Never had any on mine, I like the Karon 3 tires
The dual venture has bad head shake at higher speeds, but I don't get headshake with the GPS.
@@MobMoto just put the dual venture front on my S10 GPS on the rear. I’ll keep that information in mind.👍💪🇺🇸
@@tracey38999 I think it depends on the bike because some people will say they get headshake and some say they don't. Let us know how it goes.
What’s the GPS tyres like on wet roads? Do they hold corners well or do they slip / slide?
I live in Vegas
Ax-41's
You decided to keep your 790?
No, not for much longer.
@@MobMotoWhat are you purchasing next bike ?
And why are you getting off the 790, if you don't mind saying ? Cheers from Oz, Steve
@@stevenvankoutrik992 I really like the 790, I just want something different. Theres not really anything to replace it with honestly, but ill probably end up on a transalp.
Not really an authoritative review.
But it is an excellent user review. I trust more what a user has to say about a product than a paid agent or manufacturer.
Does anybody know if these can be mounted on standard rims with tubes? I have a KLR650.
Yes I am running them with tubes front and rear on my KLR. As the reviewer said, I think they are a good 50-50 tire. Bike does seem to squirm some when you get in loose stuff on top of hard pack. Great on the road.
