The Dunlop KR Slicks are high-performance track and competition tires designed for experienced racers and track day enthusiasts seeking maximum grip and performance. These tires are engineered to deliver exceptional handling and responsiveness on the track.
The KR Slicks utilize a very soft compound formulated to provide superior grip in dry conditions. Dunlop leverages its experience in MotoGP classes to develop these tires, incorporating continuous improvements, new compounds, profiles, and carcasses. This allows for high corner speeds and rapid changes in direction. Multi-Tread technology is used to maximize grip at various lean angles, ensuring reliable traction when accelerating out of corners.
Compared to some other brands, the Dunlop KR Slicks are known for their stability during hard acceleration and braking. The tires are constructed with nylon breaker belts and an endless aramid belt, which contribute to lower operating temperatures and predictable performance. The NTEC system allows riders to lower tire pressure on the track for enhanced grip. The Jointless Tread (JLT) strip-winding technology precisely positions multiple compounds to optimize durability, wear resistance, and high-speed stability. The KR slicks are designed to provide confidence and progressive transitions at maximum lean angles.
