Hi there there are about 2-3k km since i've installed these tyres (dunlop qualifier core) on my bike. Btw i m still not in great confidence with the front tyre: It still seems to be out of grip even at low lean angles and with not so much fast ride.
Anyone has tried these tyres on a GRiSO?
I bought them because with the previous set (qualifier II, found un the bike when i bought it) i was a decent feeling, and so other tyres i like are out of budget in italy so i decided to continue the qualifier saga...
PS also the rear tyre appears to be a little undersized for a 240kg 1100: a little bit of more gas is sufficient to leave a great amount of rubber on the asphalt [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] . But indeed it is sincere and predictable...

And rear size that "appears to be a little undersized."

Guaglio', it's fucking heavy bike. You cannot put a Supersport tyre (lightweight 600-750 cc ) on it. Dunlop Roadsmart, Michelin PR..., Pirelli Angel GT2, Continental Road Attack, are more suitable picks

I bought my GRiSO with a set of Dunlop Sportmax GPR 300 - just because it was the cheapest thing the PO could stick onto the rims. They were horrible, lost grip after a drop of water, inspired 0 confidence. I replaced them with Dunlop Roadsmart IV and never looked back. A Hypersport-tire like the Qualifier Core is made for hard riding, light bikes and lots of power. For the big and heavy, but just adequately powered GRiSO today´s modern Sportstouring tires are the better choice.

I have Dunlop Roadsmarts fitted, albeit the III and not the latest IV, and they feel like a great tyre match for the GRiSO. Loads of confidence compared to my previous experience with Pirelli tyres.

Ok guys, so i think the next tire change i will go on roadsmart4 or contiroad attack
These tyres continue to give me bad feelings and furthermore after 3000 kms the rear seems quite weared [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
