Dunlop’s presence in the Moto2 World Championship and MotoAmerica series rewards the tire manufacturer with unrivaled data. The firm isn’t wasting any of that input either, drawing on its MotoAmerica learnings and independent tests to deliver the all-new Dunlop Sportmax Q5 and Sportmax Q5S tires.
The new high-performance, street-legal lineup required four years of development but benefits from shared technology with MotoAmerica road race tires. To ensure that the new rubber meets the needs of today’s street and track riders, the brand tirelessly tested the range at its Huntsville Proving Grounds (HPG) in Alabama. Additional testing took place at the Virginia International Raceway, California’s Chuckwalla Valley Raceway, and Georgia’s Roebling Road Raceway.
