Dunlop Racing Slick Tires

New for 2019, Dunlop Motorcycle Tires announced the new KR448 110/70 R17 front racing slick and the new KR451 140/70 R17 rear slick in the Dunlop tire racing slick line. Feeding the growing numbers of 300cc racing motorcycles such as the Yamaha YZF-R3, Honda CBR300R, KTM 390 and Kawasaki 300 Ninja, Dunlop Tires is bringing their world beating technology to the smaller cc motorcycles.
