Let’s cut the fluff. If you’re still running the Pirelli MT60 RS that came with the bike, you’re playing it safe. Too safe. And you’re leaving grip, control, and confidence out on the trail. It's time you meet the upgrade that actually matches your Scrambler’s potential, the Pirelli Scorpion Rally STR.
Scorpion Rally STR vs MT60 RS. What's the Real Difference?
So what’s wrong with the OEM Pirelli MT60 RS?.Nothing if all you’re doing is street cruising and Instagram shoots. But if you’re serious about mixing it up with gravel trails, broken backroads, and wet monsoon rides, the Rally STR wipes the floor with it. Let’s break it down.
Pirelli MT60 RS (OEM Tyre):
Looks aggressive, but shallow tread limits dirt grip.Faster wear on hard riding or trail use.
Decent corner grip, but sketchy on loose surfaces.
Primarily a street tyre with some visual off-road vibes.
Pirelli Scorpion Rally STR (Upgrade):
Deeper tread blocks that actually dig into dirt.Built with a silica-rich compound that grips wet roads like a boss.
Designed for 50/50 riding, real adventure DNA.
Longer life, better stability, and more confidence off-pavement.
Performs like a dual-sport tyre, rides like a street performer.
The Scorpion Rally STR doesn't just replace your MT60rs it transforms the entire ride. You’ll feel it the moment you hit that first loose corner or damp tarmac bend. The feedback is firmer, the grip more reliable, and the vibe? 100% Ducati Scrambler unleashed.
Real Rider Benefits: What You Actually Feel

It delivers superior braking grip on wet urban roads, while offering controlled slides and stable handling on gravel and loose terrain. The tyre wears evenly, giving you a longer lifespan even under daily use. And when it all comes together, you get that unmistakable "hell yeah, this is what it’s supposed to feel like" moment every rider lives for..
