mother Posted January 4, 2008 #1 Posted January 4, 2008 i am looking at replacing the front tire and want to know what tire you guys run on the front to match this dunlop k627 rear that i already have. thanks, Scott
Leadwolf56 Posted January 4, 2008 #2 Posted January 4, 2008 Hey Scott, Why do you have a dirt bike tire on your bike? :rotf::rotf::rotf:

That is all they sell out there as they don't have any paved roads. Scott, BUY two new ones and keep the that one for a spare Just in case. If you get them in the states it would cost the same as one over here. Brad
Leadwolf56 Posted January 5, 2008 #4 Posted January 5, 2008 Scott, if Dunlop doesn't make a matching front for the K627 look at a D404, that might work. I'm thinking of trying the Elite 3 on the rear and either a D404 or Elite 2 on the front next time around. sometime next summer.
Z Factor Posted January 5, 2008 #5 Posted January 5, 2008 I have a Dunlop K591 in the rear (140/90 V16), and a Metzeler Marathon in the front (120/90 18 - 65H)
Cutty Posted January 6, 2008 #6 Posted January 6, 2008 The K627 Dunlops don't do well on bridge grates. The F11 was the sold as the matching front tire and it shook on bridges also.
