I've tried both Dunlop and Bridgestones. The Dunlops got slightly better mileage but the cupping started sooner. I don't think the Dunlops gave enough of a mileage increase though for the additional cost so for cost/value I choose Bridgestone.Learn to ride your bike so your bike doesn't ride you....

My 2005 Wing came with Dunlops and I had the cupping at around 5,000 miles. I switched to Bridgestones and never looked back.GOLDWING AND F6B MAINTENANCE VIDEOS

My 2009 had Dunlops on when I bought it but they were cupping and I found them noisey. I swithched to Bridgestones and I like them so far but I only have 2500 miles on them so far.Ross

It depends on the bike. On all the sport bikes I've owned I love the Michelin Pilot Power series but on the Wing I like the Bridgestones G709/704 combo2012 Gold Wing Ultra Blue Level III
