Dunlop Elite 3 Radial Tire
The Dunlop Elite 3 Radial Tires are the best tires I have found for my GL1800 - this is my 4th set of them. They provide good traction in all conditions. I ride fairly assertively, and never with a passenger, but am averaging only about 23,000 km per set of tires - a far and disappointing cry from the 35,000 km or so I got from bias ply E3's on my GL1500.
This is my 3rd purchase of these tires from Canada's Motorcycle - best price I can find and good service.

light and nimble handling
I just had a rear installed on my '13 Goldwing. It feels great with very nimble handling. I replaced my Bridgestone's Exedra G's with the Dunlop but trying to see how long these tires last. I have had 3 Bridgestones in the past and was quite happy with them always getting 18,000 k at the top of the wear mark.
I had tried an Avon but those only lasted to 16,000 k and the sidewalls are not anywhere as stiff as the Bridgestones nor the Dunlop. The Dunlop has even stiffer sidewalls. A bit more expensive than the Bridgestones but if they last longer they may not be.

I don't see a ply rating! I.e. radial vs cross. ???
Hi Mike,
For a radial tire, there will be an R in the tire code. All other tires are bias ply.

Does this tire require a tube?
This tire is tubeless, so it does note require a tube.
