The Ducati Scrambler comes with MT60 RS mounted. I was amazed at how well they gripped when I tried it, pushing hard on a twisty mountain road.

I would love to see how this bike looks with some fork gaiters and a headlight guard.

What size rear tire are you running?

Running a 150/70-18 in the back. Same 110 up front. I'll have to think about some gaiters!

Nice setup. OP - did you have any clearance issues with the rear tyre being 150? Sounds pretty big..

Not at all. The rear is a 150/70 vs. the stock 140/80. That makes that tire 10 mm wider and 14 mm shorter overall than the stock tire. The only limitation you're going to have on tire width is the rim width. There are a few guys I know of running a 160 in the back, but I usually try not to go more than one size up.

Ferreals, what exactly tire/size do you have on the front? I can't find an MT60 front for sale that fits. Did you use a rear? If so, how did you install it (backwards)?

I used an MT60 RS 110/80-18 front tire. That was hard to find. The U.S. Pirelli site doesn't list them in the size, but the international site does, though they list it as an RS, not RS Corsa. I bought them from American Motorcycle Tire and they were great to deal with.

I also found them at Dennis Kirk, but they list it as an MT60-R.

If you don't want to use either of them search for Pirelli 2402500. Some more sites will come up, including Amazon. I just ran a quick search for it to make sure.
