Dunlop Race Replica

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

Posted by: ironworker---------------------

I am looking for Dunlop Race Replica Tires for my RM 250, i seen some the other day rolling past me with the raised yellow lettering, does anyone know what model tires those are? i thought they were D756 but i was wrong, that model did not have the raised lettering i wanted with the tread i was looking for.
Any help would be great.

They were probably D756RR's. The raised yellow lettering might be something that only get's given to the pro's? I also know a couple of guys who buy a yellow marker stick for tires to mark the dunlop on the tire to make it look "factory"

Thanks Chili i will check it out.

I'd bet they used a tire pen. I saw a picture of a CRF250 with some michileins done in white and red. Looked realy cool.

i have a set and love them, only one thing i can say...hooks up like super glue and wears like a rubber eraser. be prepared to ride them for 3 or 4 races tops before they are shot.

The official dunlop letter color is yellow. The tires you saw were probably done by the person that owns them.

My RR's did not come with any sort of colored lettering . I love the front tire and will buy them as long as I possibly can. The tire works that well!

Ditto that. I have the 756 RR on front and love it. I'll get anothwer if I can when it comes time

How long to the front RR's last? Compared to a normal 756.

I have not got that much time on mine but I have a friend that put front and rear RR tires on mid season last year. He said the rear wore quickly and he changed it in the off season but the front is holding up well and he still has it on.

wow- i dont like the way the 756 front goes off so quick.
