I'm running one on the rear now and the front next time... if I get anywhere close to 10,000 I'll be sold for life on them.

so far wit about 2000 on it its looking good and still feeling good.

Go to the Dunlop site.
Look up your bike in the fitment area.
Then buy that size Elite 3.

I got 75 miles on my E3's. I will give a full report when I get back from the Texas B'Day bash. So far I like them much better than the OEM tires.

I just put on Avons...E3's don't have a 150mm rear tire. So far the Avons I like! Damn, this RK can take some corners! I don't think I will lower it now...I love the way it corners! Now with the IDS installed, no clatter...I will keep this bike a while!

Hey guys - I need help.

I want a new rear tire before Myrtle Beach Oct. 5 - looking at the Dunlop E3's and I'm trying to find out if they come in a wide white wall.

K - that was my decision-maker as far as whether I went w/Dunlop E3's or Avons.

Thanks for the quick response!

hey Mike/Thorns...

how's the Avon feel on grooved pavement...it has the single groove in the front tire - Avon says its to help on the painted lines...i was wondering if that makes it feel like the 402's on grooves/grating
