Dunlop size??
I have been reading past threads about tires since I will need a new one come this summer. I would like to change it before I even start riding this spring. Between the Metz 880, the D402's, and the D E3's I beleive the E3 sounds like the best choice for mileage. Do they make this tire for my stock rim on the back and if so what size would that be? Also, can I run it with the stocker on the front? Thanks for any ideas!

If running the E3, choose the MU90B16, not the MT90B16. Heres how they compare.
Load rating rim width diameter tire width tread depth load rating/psi
Harley MU85B16 77H3.0-3.5 25.71 5.5111/32 908@ 40
MT0B16 74H 3.0 25.75.1510/32830 @ 40
MU85B16 78H3.025.72 5.57 11/32930 @ 40
You can see the diff in tread depth and load rating. Width is a touch lighter and will need attention when installing. Only comes in Blackwall and is Radial Biased ply construction.
