I had the Scorpion Rally STR of my R1200GS for a trip to baja, and the sand was deep where we followed a piece of the rsce course going up to the Sky Rancho. The front tire was weak, as in the video, but the bar tread in back produced a lot of drive in the loose stuff and got me out some nasty bunkers. The front is just lovely on the street and on fire roads. In back, the sharp break from the center blocks to the side blocks, which is only slightly staggered on alternate rows, makes for a slippery spot on cold wet roads.

Comparing SCORPION RALLY STR to Michelin anakee adventure. I don't notice much if any difference on the asphalt but offroad the Pirelli is miles better. Hated the Adventure tyre even on good fire roads. Just my 2 cents if someone is comparing these two. If I go michelin I go with the anakee wilds wich is an awesome all rounder as well.

Been running these Scorpion STR front and rear on my 1200GS. Best 50/50 tyre so far. Very quiet on tar and stable even at 200km/h. Better than Mitas e07 plus on tar, similar off-road. Great grip and drive off road. I push hard and will get only 4500km out of the rear. Same as TKC70, E-07+ i ran before but better all round grip. Motoz Tractionaters was too noisy and limited on road. Will try the Tractionater GPS next.

@chaparralmotorsports 4 года назад

Hello, the STRs are a good choice. Everyone has their needs and preferences and different tires will be better suited for different riding styles/bikes.

If I understood correctly the dirt tire is the Pirelli Scorpion Rally. It should be mentioned this tire comes only in the 140 size and not the standard 150, like the STR variant. This means that it is not a road legal option for almost all of Europe countries. Great review btw.

@michiganmoto7687 2 года назад

Not sure if you will see this comment due to age of video but here goes. I live in rural Michigan where most secondary roads eventually change from ashphalt to gravel. I ride a 2021 Ninja 400 and on stock tires gravel is like riding on marbles. I am thinking about fitting the STR tires so I don’t have to turn around when faced with gravel as I like to explore in big loops and not hit the same road twice. It seems that given the performance on the Africa Twin on and off road they should do well on my light little bike. Basically it’s the cheap alternative as I continue to save up for my dual sport bike. Thanks for the feed back!

This video shows sunny and dry weather conditions. How do STRs behave on wet paved (asphalt) roads (and in cold temperatures)? 3. This video shows dry sandy/rocky types of terrains. How do STRs behave in puddles of thick wet mud? Will they be completely useless like some kind of purely road tyres in the mud? 4. Did you ever try Metzeler Enduro 3 Sahara? If so, how do those compare with STRs?

@chaparralmotorsports 2 года назад

Hello, thanks for checking out our video. It really comes down to what you will mostly be riding. The Tractionator GPS is a more aggressive 50/50 tire and the Rally STR is more like a 70/30, 80/20 road/offroad tire that can handle light offroad but is not as aggressive and is quieter on the road.

@drew812w 4 года назад

joshua kearl Josh, did you ever decide on the tires? I'm interested in knowing if you got the rallz. I put a pair on my 790 adv R and they have made the bike very stiff, hard to transition. Great traction, it makes the Karoos feel like street tires. They also make the front wiggle starting at 60 and anything above 70 starts to get unnerving. I'm going to take them off. Maybe the extra heft just doesn't work with the 790. The Karoos seem to be 1/3 or more of the weight of the rallz. Thanks in advance.

The second time I was not going very hard on the rocky terrain and they flatted anyway. Was running 37 rear, 32 front. I now hate these tires after stranding me twice.

We would LOVE to clean up ALL of the trash! It is sickening how disrespectful some people are... FYI - We do come back with several trash bags each shoot. To really clean this up would take at least a dozen dumpsters! Horrible... - Kyle

this rear tyre is tragic in dirt, have it on my T7. These are basically street tyres hence the name STR..

Hello, these are not the most aggressive or best tires for offroading--a 50/50 would be better. But some people like how these handle in the dirt. In our 80/20 ADV tire shootout these tires took third place overall, and we thought they performed fairly well in the dirt for the 80/20 tire category.

@@chaparralmotorsports you tested it on the dry, try wet grass, mud etc you won't make it far. I know it never rains in Southern California but tyres should be universal for adv bike :)

No you DO NOT need to break new tires in. Can we let that myth die already?!

@tedcrum 4 года назад

There's no mold release anymore, but the tire doesn't grip well on hard surfaces until it achieves the ripply "crepe" finish of a broken-in tire, and until the tread blocks wear to their working shape.

Not long lasting at all if you use it too much on road.

Yes you are correct. Thanks for watching.

Still shouting.

Hi Tigerick, sorry that you feel our presenter is shouting. We haven't heard anyone complain about the volume of his voice. It could be that while he's riding he wants to make sure viewers can clearly him him over the wind noise, road noise, and bike noise? Have you tried lowering the volume on your phone or computer speakers?

bad brand, overpriced and bad quality. Personal experience.

HI Carlos, sorry to hear you had a bad experience with Pirelli. We've used sevral different Pirelli tires over the years and found them to offer some pretty good tires.
