Dunlop lists them as an alternative tire for the 1125R. Longer life but less traction. I may be okay with that on the street. I HATE having to replace tires so often.

For the track I'll DEFINITELY use a softer compound but I spend most of my time on the street. Waiting to hear what others think of this tire too.

I am using the Roadsmart on my Uly. So far I really like them, but only about 1k miles into them.

I put the RoadSmart tires on my S3 this past spring. So far about 2500 miles on them and I like them. I previously used the Dunlop 220's but these have far better traction and smoothness. I can not tell yet how long they'll last. I use to get about 6500 miles on the other Dunlops, these are slated to run longer - we'll see.

I use Roadsmart tires also on my S3, put them on 4000 miles ago. Seem to work fine, should last at least as long as any tire I have used.

I've sold a few of them to happy customers.
Personally I'm running the Pirelli Strada's on my XB

I like the Roadsmart on my S3. Especially the promise of increased mileage. I have about 3000 on it so far. I chose it because the dealer suggested it was more compatible with my existing Dunlop front tire that still had about one half of its useable life left on it. He did not recommend mixing brands front to rear.

I put over 8500 on a set this spring riding across the US and back on my ULY. I loved them on for the road trip. Great LD tire without compromising the corner performance
