Just the standard Dunlop, D220 I think? Can't really remember, whatever is on the K9 SV650S as standard.

I am always a little weary of single compound Sports touring tyre's as I dont imagine you'll get the long lasting of a dual compound or the corner grip either. I could well be wrong though!!!
Nick, Dual compound Sports touring tyres don't last any longer than single compound Sports touring tyres. They are just stickier on the edges. The centre rubber is the same on both.

120/70 fits the SV, I am running a 120/70, its a bit tight with the fender extender, but doesn't touch and theres no rubbing.
