Any suggestions for an 07? My rear stock Dunlop wore out at about 8500 miles.


Same disappointment here that they don't seem to make the E3 in a wide white wall. I really like that www look on the RK Classic, so will stick with my stock tire (btw, I read somewhere that the MU85-16 is about a 147mm equivalent width)

I put on E3's (MU90rear, MT90 front) right before I went to the 105th. Have 9K miles on them and still have at least 3-4K miles left. Was only getting 7-9k on the OEM lops. Handle and stick better than OEM lop's and comparible to the Mez's with longer wear in my case as Mez's life only as good as OEM lops. E3's are the best I have come across for my bagger in terms of handling and wear. I like the Mez's for my T-Sport though for the stickier high speed mountain cornering I do with that bike. Check the www.dunlopmotorcycle.com site for sizing details that I have provided below.

E3 MU90 - 3.0 rim size, 25.72 overall dia, 5.57 overall width, 11/32 tread depth, 930lbs@40psi load rating
D402 MU85 - 3.0-3.5 rim size, 25.71 overall dia, 5.51 overall width, 11/32 thread depth, 908lbs@40psi load rating
E3 MT90 - 3.0 rim size, 25.00 overall dia, 5.24 overall width, 6/32 thread depth, 770lbs@40psi load rating
D402 MT90 3.0 rim size, 25.3 overall dia, 5.2 overall width, 5/32 thread depth, 783lbs@40psi load rating

I spoke to a Dunlop factory guy at their trailer at the 105th about the E3's and he would just smile as he could not comment as their arrangment with HD and promoting the Dunlop D Series tires for HD.
