garrymcgovern's Review of Dunlop D207 RR Motorcycle Tyre

10th Jun 2006

Overall Rating

4.5 stars
  • Value for money

Good Points

Incredibly direct and responsive, drops into corners like a Jap 400 import (they are on a 1000 V-Twin!)


Bad Points

Ability to brake so late into corners means front tyre wears quicker than rear! Mad, but true!


General Comments

Best 'performance' mod fitted to my bike. It's an old VTR1000 Firestorm (Superhawk), dyno'd, K&N'd, braided hoses, wavy discs, etc., etc. But having moved from original Dunlop D204's to D207's, then to D208's and now second set of D207 RR's, never could believe the bike could handle that well. Have ridden so much over years, including recent test ride on a 999 which I thought would replace it. Ducati on standard Pirelli's just wouldn't drop into corners with any confidence, while old Firestorm still sparks pegs (as hero tabs long worn out!). Still shocked that Race Rep tyres could have such an effect on an aging twin like mine, but after 200+ miles on Duke with standard tyres, blowing 8 grand just for the Duke name over me storm (bought brand new in 98!) can't be justifed. An RSV Factory with the D208 RR's has been ordered. Never tried the RR versions of the 208, but will let you know as soon as I've worn through first knee slider!
