Also interested to hear some feedback on these as I'm currently running roadsmarts and very happy with them.

An excellent tire - have used 4 sets now and great on the twisties, way better then the Bridges IMO, have run them on the track a few times with great results :)
PS I have a set of brand new Q2 for $300 in the sale section
RE: dunlop sportsmart - bioDog - 29-06-2011
Just bought a set of the sportsmax Q2 for $300 delivered from that Rocky mountain place , should have them on by the weekend.

Have them, love them, mine took a while to get the green off them though... BUT, When you get them working you can see the dual compound, hard in the middle, soft(er) on the outsides... they go a slightly different colour to the centre (@donovandon100 can confirm this when he noticed it on my BKing after a little ride through the hillside)... :)

I wrote that and still stand by what I wrote. If they were no good, they wouldn't have gotten anywhere near as much coverage as they did.
GREENY: Ask your tyre guy if he has tried them himself.
They also rated very well in the Superbike Comparo in the current issue of Rapid Bikes.
RE: dunlop sportsmart - Luckybusa - 16-08-2011
Just put them on today,but being shit weather went straight back home,so no report as yet.From what Ive read and been told by a few that use them is there the best all rounder they've had.Was gonna go rosso corsas but while tossing the coin went for the sportsmart. GC's fitted them up for $500
RE: dunlop sportsmart - sutur - 17-08-2011
