Scorpion MT 90 A/T

A long-serving 70/30 dual-sport tyre, the Scorpion MT 90 A/T is Pirelli's traditional answer to the on/off-road adventure question. Large central tread blocks deliver straight-line stability on tarmac, while a V-arrangement of side blocks provides traction and braking grip on gravel and dirt. The balanced silica compound is tuned for high mileage with strong wet and dry grip. OE on the KTM 950 and 990 Adventure in tubeless sizes (150/70 R18 and 90/90 R21), with most other sizes available as tube type for classic adventure bikes. Pirelli sums it up well: "adapting to daily urban use and to adventure anywhere you please on the weekends." Less aggressive than a TKC 80 or Mitas Enduro Trail, but more capable off-road than the road-leaning Anakee Adventure 2 or the scrambler-focused MT 60 RS. Wide size range covers most adventure and dual-sport bikes.

Ideal For
Terrain & Conditions
Tarmac (main use), gravel, hardpack, fire roads, light forest trails, some highway use. Capable on dry green lanes. Not built for deep mud, sand, or technical off-road.
Rider Types
Adventure and dual-sport riders whose riding is mostly road-based with regular gravel and unsurfaced sections. Long-distance tourers who want strong mileage and confident wet grip. Owners of classic adventure bikes (especially older KTM, BMW, and Japanese twins) where the MT 90 A/T has been the trusted choice for years. Not the right tyre for serious green laning or BDR-style trips.
Motorcycle Types
KTM 950 / 990 Adventure (OE on tubeless sizes). KTM 1190 / 1290 Adventure. Older BMW adventure bikes (R 1100 GS, R 1150 GS, R 1200 GS pre-LC, F 650 GS, F 700 GS, F 800 GS). Yamaha XT660Z Ténéré, Yamaha Super Ténéré XT1200Z. Suzuki V-Strom 650 / 1000, Suzuki DR650 (in matching sizes). Honda XL700V Transalp, XL1000V Varadero. Triumph Tiger 800 (older models). Aprilia ETV 1000 Caponord. Wide TT range covers a lot of classic dual-sport machines too.
Performance
MudDecent
Central blocks and V pattern do not self-clean well. Light mud is fine, anything wetter packs the tread.
GravelQuite good
The V-shaped block arrangement does its job on gravel and hardpack. Less bite than a true 50/50 like the TKC 80 or Mitas Enduro Trail.
GrassQuite good
Balanced silica compound helps on wet hardpack and damp rock. Less confident on wet roots or off-camber off-road than a knobblier tyre.
Wet Tarmac GripReally good
Silica compound gives strong wet road performance. Confident in normal rain conditions.
Road DurabilityVery durable
Silica compound delivers good mileage life. Has a long-standing reputation for wear among adventure tyres of its era.
Off-Road DurabilityLong-lasting
Optimised carcass is built for road stability and load capacity. Fine for occasional gravel and hardpack, but not built to survive sustained rough off-road punishment.

Running tubeless? You can still fit a tube.
In rough terrain — rocky enduro, low-pressure riding, Iceland-style adventure — fitting a heavy-duty tube inside a tubeless tyre is a legitimate and smart setup. Rim size below is matched to your selected tyre (17" rim).
