Anyone ride Dunlops? old ntec vs current ntec

Anyone use the 200 rear slick on the R6's?

 

Yes.

And have been for 3 years.

Shit, are you talking about the Flops? If so, then no I haven't ran their 200.

 

Yeah I know you do, but yours are Pirellis. I didn't know how much difference there would be. Stacking the 200 next to the GPA Pro 190 there is like a inch difference.

 

I rum the Dunlop slicks on my CBR600RR with no problems at all.....Clearance is fine and tire warmer's clearance is fine...

 

The Pirelli 200/60 slick has a diameter of 662mm and a width of 199mm. The Dunlop KR 200/55 slick has a 656mm diameter and is 196mm wide. The measurements change slightly if the tire is amounted on a 5.5" or 6" rim.

Compared to the GPA Pro 190/60, which has a 657mm diameter and is 190mm wide. In comparison, the Pirelli 180/60 is 656mm at the diameter and 190mm wide.

Not quite an inch.

 

Well that clears that up. Thanks Mike. You know your stuff

 

The fronts vary slightly in diameter and width as well, which changes overall bike attitude from brand to brand and size to size.

Oh, and remember that half the diameter (radius) would be the yield (+ or -) in ride height.

 

I just ordered a set of Dunlop GPA Pros medium front and rear to trying those. If the pirelli 180/60 is the same size as the dunlop 190/60 I may try the pirelli also. Is it worth trying the evos also?

Dunlop GPA Pro

120/70
width 122
height 605

190/60
width 187
height 658

Pirelli Diablo superbike slick (what compound do people run? SC2 front and SC1 rear??)

120/70
width 120
height 604

180/60
width 190
height 656

I'm seeing a discrepancy of 1mm, The front is 1mm shorter and the rear is 2mm shorter, a discrepancy of 1mm difference. I'm not sure that would warrant a geometry change would it?

 

Does anyone have the specs on the evo cup and evo slick? 120/70 and 190/55

I'm trying to attach this from my phone, so may not work. It is a list of tires and their listed diameters.
