Dunlop Sportmax Roadsmart IV Tyre
*KINDLY NOTE ALL TYRES ARE SOLD INDIVIDUALLY AND PRICES VARY AS PER SIZE WHEN SELECTED BELOW*
Sport-touring riders have unique demands. They want sport-bike level grip and handling, a compliant ride everywhere they go, and most of all high mileage for maximum tire life.
Dunlop exceeded customer expectations with the Roadsmart III (RSIII), a high-performance tire with class-leading mileage. Independent testing on a 2016 BMW R1200RT yielded more than 12,000 miles on the Dunlop RSIII, 3,000 miles more than the Michelin Pilot Road 4 GT.* Just as importantly, the RSIII met the demands of riders who wanted high performance that lasts the life of the tire.
Now the benefits of the RSIII have been elevated and refined in
the all-new Roadsmart IV (RSIV), which joins the RSIII in Dunlop’s sport-touring product line. Dunlop’s two-tiered market strategy gives riders the option to choose between the high-performing and now lower-priced RSIII, or opt for the class-leading performance of the new RSIV.
Like the RSIII, the RSIV delivers best-in-class mileage—up 26-percent compared to the RSIII—and stays close to its peak performance throughout its lifespan.** Additionally, the RSIV offers performance upgrades in both wet and dry conditions. Compared to the RSIII, the RSIV has quicker steering response for more nimble handling, and greater wet-weather performance—grip, stability and overall response.***
Features:
Compared to the Roadsmart III, the RSIV increases mileage by 23 percent in the front and 26 percent in the rear.**
New tread patterns, construction, compounds, and profiles increase ride comfort, grip, and mileage.
New technology allows the RSIV to maintain its high performance throughout its lifespan.
MT Multi-Tread™ technology in the rear tire uses a long-wearing compound in the center and special lateral compounds on the shoulders for outstanding grip.
New sidewall construction improves wet and dry handling and comfort.
**Testing performed by Dunlop in Japan on a 2018 Honda CB1300 SB with tire sizes 120/70ZR17 front and 180/55ZR17 rear on 40% public roads and 60% highways. Mileage results may vary.
