    Looking for some feedback from those of you who have run Motoz tires in Baja or for 70/30 Dirt/Road dual sport use. Really Baja involves sand, silt, single track, rock, dirt road and pavement so it is a dual sport!

    I ran a set of Desert HTs last year and although they wore like steel, I wasn't impressed with the front tire, especially back home. The rear was great in the desert but just ok back home on dirt roads and trail.

    The Enduro IT looks good but I'm thinking the rear might be squirley on pavement with the big sidewall block spacing?

    That leaves the X-Circut I-HT and Tracula, has anyone tried these tires in Baja?

    i have run a few different rears in baja but always fall back on the dunlop 606. i can't find a better lasting tire. we go every year for 2 weeks and ride all the terain. the fast 2 track, the washes, the hidden single track. we will put on about 2000 miles on our trips and the 606 seems to be our best option, loaded with sleeping gear, tubes and water. i have also contacted ricardo at rice n beans in san ignacio and he will get tires for you at a premium.

    rear tire: dunlop 606
    front: maxis dessert it, michelin baja

    just my 2 cents. if you contact ricardo he will most likely get a 606 so you could run the motoz and see how it performs. i stick with what works in baja. if you need ricardo's number i might have it some were.
