Does Dunlop still make the GT501
Does anyone know if Dunlop still makes the GT501 tires for our bikes? My front is dry rotted bad.
Barring that, has anyone tried the KENDA RetroActive tires? |

Those are for the 17s, still running pre-gen 16s. I got these used, I guess I got some use out of them...

Ah! Sorry about that, didn't realize which section I was in. Yes - it looks like it's been discontinued, if things like this can be believed:
https://www.motorcyclestorehouse.com/product/520731 But there are a bunch of them sold on eBay as NOS, but who knows if the date code will make them so old that they might not be worth it at this point.

Well, my 110 90 16 is dry rotted all to hell, and now I’m wondering if I can fit a 120 80 16 in under the fender.....

Well, I have a sport demon on its way to the house. Turns out I have a sport demon rear already and figured that it’s from 2017 so I might as well get a front and run those rather than get 2 new tires. Plus I keep looking at new bikes, which always need new tires. Getting really tempted by the idea of importing one....
