SAFETY
Inspect and check tire pressure often. This is the most important tire-maintenance function you can perform. Refer to your machine's documentation for proper maintenance. Always give tires a gentle "run-in" period of 100 miles to get the feel of new tires--this means they should not be subjected to maximum power, abrupt lean-over, hard cornering, etc. Always match the front and rear tires for optimal handling, safety and performance. Mixing radials, or mixing radials with bias or belted-bias tires, may adversely affect handling and stability.
WARNING
The charts and information on this page do not imply interchangeability. Consult your machine's manual to determine correct replacements, clearances, compatibility and stability, load-bearing capacity, speed rating, radial vs. non-radial, pattern and tread compound requirements, inflation recommendations and front-to-rear tire matching. Wrong selection can result in tire failure or loss of control with serious injury or death.
The ideal blend of performance and affordability, Dunlop’s new Sportmax Roadsport 2 radial tire is finally here. Sitting between the budget-friendly Sportmax GPR-300 tire and the high-performing Sportmax Q3+ tire, the Roadsport 2 is as innovative as it is inexpensive.
The Roadsport 2 received two major updates from the predeceasing GPR-300. Primarily focused on high performance, especially in wet conditions, Dunlop redesigned their tread for better grip and stability across the variety of surfaces the modern rider encounters today.
Utilizing special Dunlop technology, the Roadsport 2 also features Heat Control Technology, or HCT. This unique design involves advanced tread architecture, using a different compound for the outer layer and base layer of the tire. This allows for different heat characteristics at the base of the tire compared to the outer shell, optimizing overall tire performance. Other technology like Dunlop’s Jointless Belt (JBL) construction for more response and better braking, as well as their Carcass Tension Control System (CTCS) for smoother distribution can be found in the tire, too.
All of Dunlop’s ingenuity in one, cost-effective tire – the Roadsport 2 offers versatile performance for all riding styles in all conditions.
The Dunlop Sportmax RoadSport 2 is a sport tire ideal for riders who want performance and value.
Nimble performance and quick turn in allows for enhanced sport performance.
Enhanced wet and dry grip.
Quick warm up.
