Onboard Ducati 1199R on Rudskogen Racetrack. Qualification for the Norwegian SBK championship. Our rider Ole Bjørn was fastest every outing all weekend, lowering the track record with 0,7 seconds.
The bike is a Superstock 1199R with Dunlop slicks...
Looking forward to seeing this -

Met Joey at IOM in '98 right after his win in the LW 250 TT race. And while I had trouble understanding what he was saying in that thick Irish brogue, there was no mistaking that I was in the presence of someone special.
That he...
I just ordered a set of Dunlop Q3s to replace the OEM rubber (stock size up front, 195/55 out back). I got tired of replacing over-priced tires every 1000 miles of road riding.
For those of you that have done the same, I would value you insights from running these tires in fast, road-riding...
Hey people. I started running dunlop slicks for the first time"¦done 3 track days with them. Not sure how I feel about them. I'm coming off Bridgestones that I ran on an RC8"¦great front end feel from those, but the front was very sensitive to pressure setting and could get eaten up in a few...
the q3 outperformed the pirelli in the tests at the alabama track by dunlop. there were no issues with traction control or abs. The test tire was a 190/55. The q3 also outperformed the pirelli once worn. The 190/55 cant be recommend for the pani because it does not meet the load capacity...
as many of you know i am a big fan of the dunlop q2 and now even though i havnt ridden them the q3. ive been trying to get information from dunlop (the horses mouth) about a 200/55 q3. i was on their website and noticed another tire. the dunlop d212 gp pro. seems similar to the pirelli. it...
ok so ive been on the phone with dunlop over the last 2 months about a tire for the panigale. here is what i have learned and what is in the works.
dunlop has never had nor have they tested any tire for the 1199. They now have a pani to test their new Q3 tire on. This will be done on aug...
So i called dunlop about the new q3. i was told this. they finally are going to be able to test the q3 on the panigale to see if they will make a 200/55/17 or if they will recommend a different dunlop tire. as of now you can get a 200/50/17 or a 190/55/17 q3.
i rode q2 at yamaha school...
Revzilla have these on sale for $284.70 shipped!!! This is for both tyres.... If you are in the market to go this route this might be a great chance...
Rear size would be 190/55/17 Fyi...
Anyone tried it yet? Just curious. The 190/55 Q3's are getting great reviews and my dealer has them/can get them at a really good price, so i'll probably go that route.
Ive been wanting to try out the Dunlop Q2's for a while now because of the price. I was hesitant because they do not offer the correct rear size, and thought it would mess with the traction control too severely. Ducati says to only go with Pirelli because of the compound and blah blah whatever...
