I spoke to a man on the Dunlop stand at the NEC show. He stated that the new Qualifier tyre is a straight replacement for the D208 road tyre.
My husband, who runs D208RR's on his road bike was told he'd be best off sticking with them ('scuse the pun)
HTH,
Jen.

So not as good (for the track) as a 208/209GP Andy....

I run 208gp's on my 748rs and was going to move to 209's maybe the qualifier is the new 'black'?

This years must have accessory?
