So, here are the victims after some hard miles on the 1190 R.
The TKC (front) came tubeless as stock. This is how it looks with 6300 on it. Ran at about 28-30 PSI. It's doing the usual TKC front thing of wearing side knobs and leaving center knobs... go figure. On both the 1190 and KLR, it does most things well but nothing great and lasts forever.
The MotoZ Adventure 150/70-18 (tubeless) is a big fat heavy tire that works pretty well on this motorcycle (TKC 80 was stock - died at 1600 miles - over priced junk IMHO) . This one has just over 5000 on it. That 5K is mostly off-road... like the sort found along the COBDR, UTBDR, IDBDR... you get the idea. There was some pavement in it's life but only when unavoidable. Traction control and ABS were used pretty much throughout but still, we are talking about a 150HP bike. I'm liking the MotoZ and went back on with another.
