Reviews by Source

42 reviews, 4.6 of 5 stars. On an Indian Scout, ridden regularly through the rain the Midwest, never felt more comfortable, perfect for long highway rides. Another prefers the Pirelli Night Dragon to the Dunlop Elite 3, handles in wet better, feedback amazing. On a 2006 Dyna, on third set, work well in wet and dry, great grip, get 12-15k miles per set. On a 2013 FXDB, expect to get 10-11k miles, awesome grip, rate wet handling 8 of 10. Another prefers over the Screaming Eagle Dunlop on 2006 HD Street Bob, much cheaper, traction is excellent.

129 reviews, 4.8 of 5 stars. On a Dyna, have tried all the brands and prefers the Pirelli Night Dragon. Many prefer the Night Dragon over the stock Dunlops. Another prefers the Night Dragon to the Dunlop American Elite, bike feels lighter in and quicker in corners. On a 97 Sportster, had used Dunlop and Metzeler, prefer the Night Dragon, provides more grip and turn in.
