The Dunlop Sportmax Q5 rear motorcycle tire is a street-legal, track-focused radial tire engineered for riders who want responsive handling and dependable grip during aggressive street riding and track-day sessions. Developed from the proven Sportmax Q4 platform and Dunlop MotoAmerica road race tire technology, the Q5 combines racing-inspired performance with practical wet- and dry-weather usability.

Jointless Tread (JLT) technology uses a continuously wound tread strip to precisely position the compound for improved stability, controlled flex, and consistent grip. Dunlop Racing Type Fine Carbon Technology increases bonding points within the compound and helps distribute heat more evenly across the tire. The Intuitive Response Profile (IRP) supports smooth, linear steering response while increasing the usable contact patch through cornering.

The Sportmax Q5 uses an optimized tread pattern to promote quicker warm-up and enhanced wet-weather performance. Its taller, narrower profile helps sharpen turn-in and rider feedback while increasing the footprint at lean. This rear tire features a 180/60ZR17 fitment, radial construction, a directional design, and a tubeless black sidewall configuration. The Dunlop Sportmax Q5 rear tire is supplied as one tire and is designed for compatible sport and sport-touring motorcycles using the specified wheel and fitment requirements.
