I really like the OEM Dunlops on my KLX, but after 2,000 miles the rear needs to be replaced and Dunlop does NOT sell them as replacements to the public! Only OEM to the manufacturer!

I'll probably replace it with a 606 (IIRC) and see how that works.
I think you'll enjoy the Dunlop, D606 rear tire, Doc. If you don't need DOT approval, you might also try the Dunlop, D952 rear tire shown in the photo I posted earlier.

Incidentally, the Dunlop, D606 front tire is reported to wear unevenly. Also, the D606 front tire is directional, so you can't flip it to extend the life of the tire. :( The D952 front tire gets excellent reviews, but it is not DOT approved. I really like my CST, Surge I, front tire, and it is DOT approved.
