The Dunlop Roadsmart 3 is engineered for the rider who demands both high performance and longevity from their tires. This tire caters to a broad spectrum of motorcycles, from middleweight sportbikes to larger performance touring machines. It distinguishes itself within the sport-touring category by offering a unique blend of confident handling, exceptional grip, and extended mileage.
The Roadsmart 3 incorporates an innovative tread design with enhanced groove angles to promote even wear across the tire's lifespan. Dunlop's Interconnecting Groove Tread (iGT) technology facilitates efficient water evacuation, ensuring consistent grip and handling in wet conditions. The tire's construction features a Multi-Tread (MT) compound, utilizing a high-mileage compound in the center for durability and a high-adhesion compound on the lateral flanks for enhanced cornering grip. This combination allows for confident riding in various conditions.
Compared to its predecessor, the Roadsmart 2, the Roadsmart 3 boasts improvements in longevity, handling, and wet/dry grip. The revised rayon ply carcass requires less steering input and offers more precise handling while maintaining reliable feedback. The Roadsmart 3 stands out by providing consistent performance throughout its life, ensuring that riders experience minimal drop-off in grip and handling as the tire wears. With a UTQG treadwear rating of 100, this tire indicates a focus on track and competition use with a very soft compound.
