Following recent routine start-up (and pre-sale testing of veglia odometer) battery seemed weak (~12v at rest) - but in checking my notes, original was replaced 03/2008 (at around 65k) ... so after 12 years service is probably due. These batteries do last! Will be making an allowance for replacement as part of my sale of the bike btw ... and a recommendation for equivalent. Gio

I'm running the Mitas E-07s on mine. They have a pretty aggressive tread for an ADV tire. I mostly ride asphalt and they handle quite well. I do graded dirt roads and slightly rougher dirt roads whenever possible, and I have bounced over a few rocky sections, but nothing really technical. They work much better than the stock 90/10 tires. The Mitas is supposed to be a long-wearing tire, but I have not been going slow enough to have that experience. FWIW - I replaced the rear TKC 80 on my Husqvarna 701 with the Heidenau K60s - for much improved traction and seems to be wearing better.
