Re: dunlop rideen tyres any good??
Never tried the Rideen's - I fancy a set of Dunlop Alpha 10's next if anyone has used these, although everyone seem to be using the BT090's

Re: dunlop rideen tyres any good??
Aren't they the GPR 70's and 80's?
If so the 70's are are good -used to have them on my NC30 - they didn't warn up as fast as the BT090's though,
the GPR80's were more of a commuting style tyre if i remember rigtly and more suited to touring as they were uber hard wearing.

As Smev says above, Rideen is a whole series of dunlop tyres.
Which model is it?

Re: dunlop rideen tyres any good??
had a gpr80 rideen front and a gpr100 rear that came fitted to the bike didn,t realise they were commuting tyres until i dumped bike in the wet. after further research found gpr100 only listed now as a fitment in sizes to suit a burgmann etc guess previous owner picked them up as old stock somewhere they have now been skipped . for touring commuting bt92 or sport bt090 bridgestones or dunlop alpha 10s etc

Re: dunlop rideen tyres any good??
As I said before GPR 70's were the sports tyres at the time but have been surpassed by more modern technology - BT090's or dunlop Alpha 10's are the latest decent tyres with the 18" rear option
