spirited miles
These RS3 tyres are on a BMW F800GT motorcycle.
They have not been used in the wet (yet).
The front tyre has 2600km and the rear 3700km to date. Both are wearing OK with the eventual flat section from cornering on the front tyre (rhs) half just starting to show itself. The rear is wearing uniformly.
They are typical RS Dunlop's in that they have stiff carcasses which sharpens up steering, gives a firm but not hard ride and gives good feedback.
I gave dry grip 9 as i have no idea what their limit is but with spirited riding so far they have not let go or slipped.
I used a set of RS2's on a Honda VFR800 before i got the BMW and of the 6 different make/model sets of tyres used on this bike, the RS2's were my favorite and got the most KM's. From the Dunlop PR blurb, the RS3's should be as good if not better. So far the RS2 & RS3 feel the same but hopefully there will be extra km's available.
If they get the extra km's will likely buy again, especially the rear. I may go for a Dunlop Q3 on the front next time.
Maybe an up date in the future if i can.
