I would have to say I probably won't run Dunlops because what ebbs wrote above, I've heard more than once.

Dunlops 208s yes, but my Dunlop Qualifier and Roadsmart rocks and stick like glue.

yeah the qualifiers I had weren't bad... but weren't on the same level as the Pilot Powers. the D606's I've got on the DRZ are nice... great grip and great wear.. for a knobby

So a Roadsmart sticks like glue, but a D208 doesn't?

When I went to CA Superbike school about 5 years ago, they ran D208s. I thought they were fine for what they were, but the track temps were in the upper 80s. I wouldn't run a B or higher track group on em though.
