Dunlop qualifier
 

Where does this tyre fit in in the scheme of thing to say a 208gp or a 209gp?

isnt it the new top of the range dunlop road tyre and the one that the r6cup boys will be using this year ??

I belive there where some at the NEC, latest Dunlop tyre, ment to be better than the GP range..... not sure how many people are stocking them yet thou.

Does this mean they wll only be good enough for 1 flying lap:D

In the Sport Rider of december they rated top:

dunlop qualifier rating 91.4
michelin pilot power rating 89.3
bridgestone BT 014 rating 89.0
metzeler sportec M1 rating 87.3
pirelli diablo rating 86.0

Sport rider :lol: makes me think of a "one for the ladies" magazine:lol::lol:

still good rating!

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?

ive had dunlops on previous road bikes and not liked them that much but a lot of ducati owners seem to recommend them.

what dunlop would you recommend for fast road/track riding ???

In the dry Dunlop D208RR's are my fave, but I've not used them in the wet. Standard D208's are very good in the dry as well and last longer but they are one of the worst tyres ever in the wet.
207RR's are my favourite wet weather tyre and somewhere between the D208 standard tyre and the 208RR in the dry. They don't last as long as either of the 208 models.
