Dunlop is an awesome tire... go to any race school in the US and see what tires those bikes are wearing... it's the DQ

They are running the racing tires by dunlop...not the street qualifiers.

You need to get michelin pilot powers 2ct. They are a dual compound for the street.

+1 on the Michelin.To me the DQ take a little longer to warm up.And I can't say anything about the Corsas because I haven't used them.

no arguments there... I definitely take it very easy for the first 5 minutes for warm up but then it seems like they stick longer after being warm
