Default Dunlop Qualifier/Qualifier RR

So how many of you lot have used either?

Anyone used both!?!?

Wondering which would be best for riding in all conditions but good at big lean on a bike which does push the front quite hard... Hard enough to push a Michelin PilotPower?

I need it to be half decent in the wet as I do get caught out in it from time to time... If the RR is really terrible then id have to stay away, but to be honest I don't push it in the Rain, not worth the risk after ive been caught out with diesel a couple of times.

Oh and ill be using a RoadSmart rear. Plenty of grip for me. Just want faster steering front with more grip than a Roadsmart front can offer.

Any other reviews on this tyre of course welcome!

Cheers



*Edit* should I just run a Pilot Power, I been reading that they are better fronts than the Qualifiers... LOL. Michelin front Dunlop rear... Oh well, thats what im on atm.

A mate of mine swears by the RR's in the dry but says they don't inspire him in the wet.

Well I suppose I could ask how is the front Roadsmart for profile and feel?

Haven't ridden them but I hear they're the best of the sport touring tyres.

Used both. Went from the standard Qualifier to the RR on R6. Qualifier is good but the RR is awesome! Considering getting me another pair on the 675 if I can find them out here.

Can't really comment on wet/road riding, but dry track riding- the RR's were great.
