MotoAmerica

Dunlop will continue as the exclusive tyre supplier of the MotoAmerica AMA/FIM North American Road Racing Series.

Racers competing in the premiere MotoAmerica Superbike, Superstock 1000 and Supersport classes will use Dunlop’s KR448 and KR449 racing slicks while the Superstock 600 racers will use Dunlop’s GPA-Pro DOT tires built in Dunlop’s factory in Buffalo, New York. The KTM 390 Cup machines will run on Dunlop Alpha 13s.

“Dunlop has always been a big part of AMA Superbike racing and I’m glad they’re stepping up to do so again in 2015,” said three-time 500cc World Champion and MotoAmerica president Wayne Rainey.

“I had great success using Dunlops during my career and they were a big part of my World Championship in 1991. I know our racers and teams will be happy to have Dunlops on their motorcycles for the coming season,” he added
