I use Michelin AC10's on my old girl , loads of grip off road with crosser tire looks but are ARE ROAD LEGAL .
If your just using her off the road then then it depends what you'll be riding on the most ! gravel/ hard pack then use the hardcross compond tyres . Intermediate , grass loose mud etc etc .

Greetings from the U.S.A. try looking at Dunlop's D-606s they are a little aggressive ( 90/10 off/on road) but are really great tires that last quite a long time and are certified by the American D.O.T. (department of transportation) for highway use (a big deal here!!! without D.O.T. stamped on the tire your breaking the law riding on the street :sad:) have fun!! Curt.

AC10's for me or if you not bothered about being road legal s12's. use both for on road and off on various bikes.
