Dunlop specs: MU85 402 D:25.71 W:5.51 LR:908# MU90 Elite 3 D:25.72 W:5.57 LR:930#. The difference in width is about 1/16" or 1/32" per side, unnoticeable. Many on this forum have used them with great success. I'm running the 160/80-16 & it's a tight fit, had to trim the belt guard, 12K miles & still 5-6/32nds tread left & it handles great, you won't be disappointed.

Tar snakes with a bagger and 402's a problem? A non-issue for me after having a stretched softail with an Avon pencil tire up front. Pencil tires can be downright scary on tar lines and sandy roads.

I love the 402's wet and dry. Now if I could find a rear tire by any maker that didn't square off after 10,000 miles.......
