    I had an xt225 for awhile and it was great. Light, great MPG, comfy. The only issue I had is that it was underpowered for my 215lbs + gear. But it could do 60mph-ish, so as long as I stayed off the interstate, it was fine. If I were to go dual-sport again, I'd like to try a DRZ-400 or a KLR-650.

    He's not trying to send it, he's trying to explore trails. I had no issues with mine, you just can't come through at full throttle all the time. Two very different types of riding.

    Thanks I will probably take you up on that offer but it would be a spring project. I went to website and saw they have tons of "different" types, Heavy Duty alone had 11 versions.

    Cooper AT3 or Hankook Dynapro ATM? Duratracs are too aggressive for me, I don't do enough off-road stuff for that. But I need something that won't suck in snow like mine currently do.

    I really liked my Dynapro when I ran them. Wore great and good in snow.

    I ran those as well in the past. Good tire imo if you are not planning on doing to much 4 wheeling.

    My wife's Hyundai is more reliable than my Ford Ranger ever was. :notsure:
    If they're good, they're good, regardless of country of origin. Kinda like 'ad hominem' for manufacturers.

    I have no experience with the coopers so I can't talk there, but if I didn't drive offroad on lease roads with my work truck and needed the extra meat on the duratracs i would go back to the dynapros. I offroaded with those a small amount too and they did fine.
