What is the tyre of choice for a 1200 TC. I like the idea of some dirty roads and some loose stuff but I suppose in all honesty 90% of the time I will be on tarmac.

There is no correct, or single answer. You either go "Road tyres", & Conti, Michelin, Dunlop & others make fine road tyres, or you choose the "Trail look" & the same manufacturers offer similar tyres; Tourance, Trail Attack etc etc. There is a third way, with out & out off-road tyres, but I suspect you don't want that.

Try the search button fella tyre threads are ten a penny on here. and it depends on GSA or GS and what did it have fitted when you got it?

Heidenau Scouts or Mitas E-07's are an excellent dual purpose tyre and probably 70% road and 30% dirt capability. TKC80's are another popular choice but are more 50/50.

In all honesty, road based tyres like tourance, road attacks, annakee's etc are as good as useless on anything other than dry dirt if you want to feel nice and secure.

New TKC70 look good

Pirelli Scorpion Trail are a brilliant 90/10 tyre.
