The MICHELIN Road 6 tire typifies two decades of ongoing innovations and MICHELIN Technologies from our highest level of expertise.

Dunlop has revealed details of its new-for-2022 RoadSmart IV, its most versatile sport-touring tyre yet. The RoadSmart IV uses a mix of Dunlop’s innovative technologies to create a multi-talented tyre. Dunlop’s goal is to set new standards in handling, stability, wet grip and mileage across the wide spectrum of motorcycles and rider styles in the sport-touring sector.
The sport-touring sector has become incredibly diverse as motorcycle genres overlap each other. Naked roadsters, crossover designs, road-focused adventure bikes, hyper-nakeds as well as traditional sport-tourers, were all in the design remit for RoadSmart IV.
Dunlop saw this broadening of the segment as an opportunity to create an all-new RoadSmart generation. It had to fit the needs of commuters, long-distance tourers and riders using their bikes for a Sunday morning blast. The design process was shaped by Dunlop’s research. Riders wanted a tyre that could deliver a perfect balance of outstanding dry performance and exceptional wet grip, neutral and stable handling and deliver consistent performance even after several thousand kilometres. From that brief, RoadSmart IV was born.

The hardwearing compound and optimal performance, both on-road and off-road, make the E-07 a preferred choice on many journeys across the world. Selected sizes are available in the Dakar version (yellow stripe marking) featuring a stronger carcass and higher puncture resistance. Ideal for higher loads, long-distance adventure trips and extreme conditions.
Mitas E-07+ ENDURO TRAIL: 60% / 40% dual sport
Mitas E-07+ ENDURO TRAIL is designed as a 60/40 dual sport – trail – adventure bike tire (60% on-road & 40% off-road use).

Compared to the E-07, it has a more rounded profile to provide excellent maneuverability and cornering stability. The aggressive chevron tread pattern helps disperse water, soil, and mud from the surface, even in very extreme conditions. The harder rubber compound of the Dakar version (yellow stripe marking) brings 20% more mileage compared to the standard version and almost complete puncture protection thanks to the reinforced carcass. The rubber compound of the standard version (non-Dakar) is better suited for wet roads.

Tread design
Most asked question, why do different sizes look different? A new compound created new challenges in design.

Incorporating feedback from customers and countless miles of testing, this resulted in tires looking different for the different bikes, but insuring the best performance.
