Dunlop D208's

Nigel Booker · 07-Feb-2004, 08:51

I need a new set of tyres and normally use D207RR's I just wondered if anyone was using D208's and what they thought of them?

Do they make an RR version yet? I see they do a GP but they are just to expensive.

Nigel I know the GP's are a bit expensive but i have them on and all i can say is they are fantastic.

They are a tad on the heavy side and not as stable as some on the straights because of the profile, but i love em.

worth looking around race paddocks - you can often get a good set of sticky tyres for under £100 quid.

Never had them on my 996 but used them on the ZX7R I had before I liked them but never got more than 1500mls out of the rear...
