The Dunlop Sportmax Q5 rear motorcycle tire is a street-legal, track-focused radial tire engineered for riders who want responsive handling, strong dry grip, and dependable performance during spirited road and track-day use. Developed from the proven Sportmax Q4 platform and MotoAmerica road-racing technology, the Q5 combines race-inspired construction and compounds with a user-friendly design that performs in both wet and dry conditions.

Dunlop Jointless Tread (JLT) technology uses a continuously wound tread strip to precisely position the compound for improved stability, controlled flex, and consistent grip. 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 ultra-linear steering response, a larger contact patch, and predictable feedback through corners. Its taller, narrower profile helps sharpen turn-in and increases the footprint at lean angles, while the optimized tread pattern promotes faster warm-up and improved wet-weather capability.
