Recently, Harley Davidson approved the latest Dunlop GT 502 for its new XL1200 CX Roadster. These two new GT502 sizes feature an all-new radial construction that is designed to suit the sportier nature of the latest Roadster with its dynamic suspension and upgraded braking components.
For the Geomax MX 12, Dunlop’s U.S. race team joined forces with DPG and Dunlop’s European MXGP World Championship racing team to develop the tire on tracks here and in Europe, including testing on some of Europe’s “bottomless sand” tracks on the world MX championship schedule.
Designed for soft-terrain applications, the MX12 excels in extreme sand and mud conditions. Dunlop’s goal with this tire was to increase overall performance in a broader range of conditions—for example maintaining the tire’s high level of grip on muddy tracks even when the mud begins to dry out.
