OVERVIEW
The Dunlop D402 rear motorcycle tire delivers targeted pavement traction and load-bearing durability for heavy-duty touring machines. Built as a tubeless component with a reinforced bias-ply rubber compound, it sustains long-distance highway operation while maintaining dimensional stability under weight. Engineered primarily for Harley-Davidson touring platforms, it merges classic cruiser aesthetics with modern structural engineering.
ENGINEERING & PERFORMANCE
Its bias-ply architecture utilizes a three-ply polyester casing reinforced by two independent fiberglass belts to absorb highway vibrations and uphold casing integrity during extended cruises. A dedicated offset central groove actively controls lateral sway and suppresses tread cupping, extending usable service life across varied pavement textures. The tubeless foundation pairs seamlessly with standard rim configurations to deliver straightforward installation and consistent straight-line tracking.
