Don't let looks fool you
Purchased front and back tires for my KTM 250 dualsport based on a recommendation from my mechanic. True to his words, these tires look intimidating due to the 90/10 offroad bias, , but after several hundred kms they haven't given me one issue, and they can even hang corners pretty good too, due to their stiff sidewall and strategically placed blocks. Cupping may be an issue later on but you have to remember these are a dedicated dirt tire that somehow snuck past the DOT, not a 50-50; so if you're concerned with pavement wear, determine your riding needs first.
Hardly if not no speed wobble or vibrations coming from the front tire once the wheel was balanced at highways speeds.
My biggest advice is ride these like they were designed to be ridden, they work plenty good on the asphalt and are killer in the dirt, but you're not a MotoGP superstar, so don't expect them to perform like this!
All in all I'd put these on again, no problem.

awesome off road tire
put on my 2019 Honda CRF250L with a pirelli mt-21 up front replacing stock rubber, super awesome off road, 100x better than stock, no getting stuck on loose hill climbs, way better feedback - you can feel it starting to break loose around corners etc but gives lots of warning so can easily compensate - the stock tires let you know just as you're crashing....
on road are quite good - not as good as stock (which are 70% on road), still a bit wary of leaning too much, but so far no panic moments at all, and cruising at 100-110 no issues at all
a bit louder and choppier at times on pavement, but above 50kmh the engine and wind noise drowns it out, so not really an issue.
stock size 120/80 18, replaced w/ 120/90 18.
mt21 is 90/90 21, stock 3.00x21
both perfect fit, no clearance issues or modifcations/changes needed at all.

great for the big trips.
my 3rd set of these for the ktm exc. I started buying this tire more for the longivity reports i heard from others. Have gotten great long dual sport rides, with dirt and tar. Very strong sidewall so be ready for a tuff tire change compared to weaker tires.

Excellent un vrai pneu pour hommes!
J'ai une XR650l, Ça fait trois ans que je roule avec les Dunlop D606. Je les ais pour ainsi dire adoptés. J'ai un style de conduite agressif et il faut que ça passe partout ! Pas de compromis. Je pars au travail avec ma moto et le soir, je m'évade dans les trails et je n'ai aucune difficulté à suivre les enduros et autres fanatiques de la bouette. Par contre, je brûle 2 sets par saison... C'est le prix à payer pour la liberté TOTALE ! C'est ainsi que je conçois le motocyclisme. Une moto capable et bien chaussée, rien ne m'arrête.

Heavy Duty off road tire with good street manners
Good grip off road wet or dry, turns my 650 Dualsport machine into a tractor off road, best handling and confidence I have ever experienced in all types of trails. Performs well in Mud, sand, hard ground and rocks! Street performance is decent, turn in is better than the other brand of rear tire I had also less noisy on the highway. Tough overall tire construction, installed with heavy duty tubes and it's practically impervious to punctures. Will be my rear tire of choice from now on!

1000 KM Review
bought this about a month and a half ago.
put this on my 2018 FE 350 with a tuner, matched up with a Pirelli MT 21 Front Tire
i ride this to work everyday on the road, and hit the trails on the weekends
i put just 1000 km on the tires. "mostly road riding"
Im on Vancouver island and i find the tire in trails is a bit hard to find traction but this is my first 4 stroke bike as all i have ran before was just 2 stroke race bikes.
i have been running my tires @ 12 to 13 PSI front and rear on road and off road.
tried to upload photos but wont let me....
having these tires combo works well i would recommend to any one

The one and only
I've only run the 606'6 on my DR except the last time I was needing them, I couldn't get them right away. I went with the Pirelli MT 21 instead. I don't think they were that bad at all, and I did like the front tire, just not the back. It didn't hook up as well. So I've just ordered a new set of the 606.

Works well in a 21” on an F800GS
Used to run TKC80s which were cery squirrelly on loose gravel and collected mud. These are excellent in gravel and mud, and althpught they have an odd wear pattern - heavy bike under braking - and dont last that long, for offroad, they are excellent.
