Dunlop D208's any good?

anybody tried these?

it seems as if they are not too good

As above, PR2s or Z6's. Leaning more towards PR2s than Z6 tho.

I've heard of litre bikes going touring in Europe & getting 5000 miles out of them happily. An SV650 will eat far less rubber than any litre bike.

I've got a D208 on the back of my ZX7 and a D207 on the front, and they're fine. Not desperately cheap for what it is, but it's grippy enough in the dry for a proper hoon, grippy enough on track for peg-down (doesn't work on grass though), and acceptable in the wet, unless you're a bit heavy handed.

Yes, there are no doubt better tyres, but until my set wear out together, I'll stick with what's on there, as they work fine.
