Just from my personal experience:

Hard to break bead/seat bead - not a tyre to DIY change for the first-timer. Don't offer much feel and feedback on the road but grip well wet or dry. Ok off road as long as its not muddy (they 'ball up'). Last forever and a day. A good choice for a long distance trip (but practise taking them off before you go!)

Went to Morocco and back on my GP450 - 5,000kms. Wet performance OK as long as you're sensible in bends. Dry performance is good. Back tyre half-worn, front still has the pimples. Had the back end break away once but that was a roundabout and I may have caught hot wet tar or fuel. Not great in soft sand, OK on piste (fire roads).
I'll fit a set to the Ten once the fitted tyres have worn out
