Dunlop Q3+ Tons of grip, and good milage for the performance. Just be careful in the cold.
Dunlop Roadsmart 3 12k miles.
MT21 front and D606 rear, both great wear on slab
The D606 rear had a nice price/off-road grip/road handling/distance. I’d get about 4500km before the rear needed changing which was not to bad for the price. The only negative I have with the D606 is it’s not great on wet bitchumen. Very easy to lock the rear and go sideways with the slightest dab of rear break.
Used up two sets on my Xr650l and love them. A bit noisy on the pavement but great off-road
guys at the tire shop i go to said that you get good value for money with dunlop tires. they’re high quality but cost less than bridgestone or michelin. i’ve not noticed much of a difference so far as compared to michelin.
You will never get the q4 hot enough and will be more prone to low side, the exact thing you are trying to avoid.
The Dunlops didn’t seem all that grippy though; I felt the rear start to slide out inexplicably on a tight turn on a clean road that was only slightly rough and I didn’t feel like I was really pushing the bike all that much - just light throttle and was riding smoothly.
Which slick do you have exactly? I ran the d212 medium and endurance. Absolutely hated them. The medium got destroyed in one day. Started losing grip after 3 sessions already. Then I tried the endurance compound, but it also lasted only 2 days and kept losing grip. Apparently they are very sensitive to pressure, temperature and shock settings.
I put a Dunlop slick rear on recently and had a ton of trouble with it. It needs a ton of heat in order to grip but I never developed any trust in it and it has the worst traction of any tire I've used.
