Tires NITTO or DUNLOP
I'm running a ducati 848 evo and I have the sportmax gpr300 in the front and a roadmaster 3 in the back I've got 2k miles of very spirited riding on them so far and I've got to say I feel like I've pushed them to the limit several times but I've never felt as if they were going to let go on me. A few times the roadsmart or roadmaster or whatever in the rear a felt get a little wiggly but the sportmax on the front has never felt as if it was lacking grip at all whatsoever my only issue thus far is that the sportmax gpr300 is showing quite alot of wear after 2k miles where as the rear tire isn't showing much wear at all.
For what it's worth, I've loved the Nitto Neo-Gens. Have been flawless in the rain plus very quiet and decent adhesion all-around.
Nitto neogens ???????? thank me later
I had to change tyres for my 5 series last month. I went with Dunlop (not runflat) and can feel a marked improvement in the ride quality over the run flats.
I used them both on street and track on a gsxr600. I loved them for dry weather sporty street riding. On sunny track days, the rear overheats after a couple of laps and the grip noticeable reduces, but even then the rear is still very controllable and completely safe. No warmers needed and excellent wear.
I put Nitto Motivos on my 15 limited and they feel great. Nice grip
Nitto Recon Grappler. Great tires, very quiet but look great
I have the nittos NT555 G2s on my mustang and they have lasted about 30k miles. But I wouldn't call them ultra high performance by any stretch of the word.
The Dunlops didn’t seem all that grippy though; I felt the rear start to slide out inexplicably on a tight turn on a clean road that was only slightly rough and I didn’t feel like I was really pushing the bike all that much - just light throttle and was riding smoothly.
Which slick do you have exactly? I ran the d212 medium and endurance. Absolutely hated them. The medium got destroyed in one day. Started losing grip after 3 sessions already. Then I tried the endurance compound, but it also lasted only 2 days and kept losing grip. Apparently they are very sensitive to pressure, temperature and shock settings.
