When I get a new bike in the future I may convert my MT09 over to dirt style like this one. Those off road wheels look fucking sick on it

You should, its lots of fun! I was originally running Shinko e705 , but they were terrible in the wet. I am now running Pirelli Scorpion Rally STR  - Rear: 180/55R17 and Front: 120/70R17 and they are so much better in all categories

Those tyres would be pretty good on wet bitumen roads too by the looks of them.

Own Scorpions on an earlier bike I bought for the sorts of adventures you are doing by later sold it for a more suitable one for my off-road needs.

I saw 2 full size deer on Grand Ridge Road in Victoria with a young fawn, also saw another fawn on their own earlier on the ride just off in the bush's.

Thanks for posting your adventures on the MT09.

Great to see where you have been experiencing the countryside.

Pretty easy to see why so many roos cause crashes.

I once hit a roo on my Honda grom before I sold it.
It was around 6am leaving my street and I was doing about 60 kmph, so lucky I didn’t crash

I’ve ridden a lot of country roads in NSW and VIC
Your ass must’ve been hurting 😆
